subthalamic nucleus, globus pallidus externa, and SNc. They simulated the molecular pathways involved in cell death of SNc neurons in terms of detailed chemical kinetics. The authors showed that energy deficiencies occurring at cellular and network levels could precipitate the excitotoxic loss of SNc neurons in PD. Therapeutic effects of neuroprotective interventions were simulated.
