Overview
Parkinson disease was first documented and recognized by a British physician, James Parkinson in 1817 who named it paralysis agitans. The first underlying pathology of Parkinson disease was described by a German pathologist Frederick Lewy in 1912. He described that there are cytoplasmic inclusions in some brain areas of PD patients. in 1967 the drug “L-dopa” was introduced to the market as a treatment of Parkinson ’s disease.
Historical Perspective
Discovery
- Parkinson disease was first documented and recognized by a British physician, James Parkinson in 1817 who named it paralysis agitans.
- The current name of the disease (Parkinson disease) is from Jean-Martin Charcot.
- The first underlying pathology of Parkinson disease was described by a German pathologist Frederick Lewy in 1912. He described that there are cytoplasmic inclusions in some brain areas of PD patients.
- Later on in 1919 Tretiakoff showed that in this patients’ substantia nigra there are evidences of neuronal loss.
- Finally in the 1950s dopamine depletion was known to be the underlying cause of the disease.[1]
- Later, in 1967 the drug “L-dopa” was introduced to the market as a treatment of Parkinson ’s disease.[2][3][4]
