Several disorders can affect the CNS, each with distinct symptoms and implications:
Multiple Sclerosis: An autoimmune disease that damages the myelin sheath, impairing signal transmission between neurons. Parkinson's Disease: A neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the loss of dopamine-producing neurons, leading to motor dysfunction. Alzheimer's Disease: A progressive disease causing memory loss and cognitive decline, primarily affecting the elderly. Epilepsy: A condition marked by recurrent seizures due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain.
