Abstract
Parkinson's Disease is a highly prevalent neurodegenerative illness which presents the death of dopaminergic neurons, motor dysfunctions, constipation, and comorbidities as neuropsychiatric disorders. These features are primarily responsible for incapacitation and loss of life quality. Microglial cells and astrocytes control the lesion, due to phagocytic capability, neurotrophic factors r…

Abstract
The basal ganglia are a core that controls movement. Its circuitry is mainly formed by inputs from cortical and thalamic glutamatergic neurons, striatal and pallidal GABAergic neurons, and dopaminergic neurons from substantia nigra. Dopamine receptors on GABAergic neurons control their excitability, plasticity, and neurotransmitter release. Parkinsonian rodents present hypoactivity of dop…
