Striatal Network Model in Parkinson Disease: Preliminary Study
Kyoung Gyu Choi, Kee Duk Park
Ihwa Ŭidae chi 1996;19(2):221-226.   Published online July 24, 2015
DOI: https://doi.org/10.12771/emj.1996.19.2.221
Objective

To construct the neural network model in the striatum that can explain the clin-ical effect of Parkinson disease.

Methods

We use an approach to studying the function of neural systems that is based on the use of a class of computer models known as parallel distributed processors(PDPs).And the focus of this study is the nigrostriatal dopaminergic effects on the corticostriatal fibers and the striatal medium spiny neurons.

Results

A model that explains hypokinesia in Parkinson disease is presented for the opation of the striatum.

Conclusions

In order to study the brain funcion and mechanism of physiopathology, te-stable theories that consider brain as a whole system are needed. We think neural network model with PDPs would be an important field in neuroscience in near future.
