Abstract
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects more than 7 million people worldwide. Its aetiology is unknown, although the hypothesis of a genetic susceptibility to environmental agents is accepted. These environmental agents include fungi, bacteria, and viruses. Three microorganisms are directly associated with a significantly increased risk of developing Parkinson's disease: the fungal genus Malassezia, the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, and the hepatitis C virus. If the host is vulnerable due to genetic susceptibility or immune weakness, these microorganisms can access and infect the nervous system, causing chronic neuroinflammation with neurodegeneration. Other microorganisms show an epidemiological association with the disease, including the influenza type A, Japanese encephalitis type B, St Louis, and West Nile viruses. These viruses can affect the nervous system, causing encephalitis, which can result in parkinsonism. This article reviews the role of all these microorganisms in Parkinson's disease.
期刊介绍：
Neurología es la revista oficial de la Sociedad Española de Neurología y publica, desde 1986 contribuciones científicas en el campo de la neurología clínica y experimental. Los contenidos de Neurología abarcan desde la neuroepidemiología, la clínica neurológica, la gestión y asistencia neurológica y la terapéutica, a la investigación básica en neurociencias aplicada a la neurología. Las áreas temáticas de la revistas incluyen la neurologia infantil, la neuropsicología, la neurorehabilitación y la neurogeriatría. Los artículos publicados en Neurología siguen un proceso de revisión por doble ciego a fin de que los trabajos sean seleccionados atendiendo a su calidad, originalidad e interés y así estén sometidos a un proceso de mejora. El formato de artículos incluye Editoriales, Originales, Revisiones y Cartas al Editor, Neurología es el vehículo de información científica de reconocida calidad en profesionales interesados en la neurología que utilizan el español, como demuestra su inclusión en los más prestigiosos y selectivos índices bibliográficos del mundo.
