“…Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common age-related neurodegenerative disease resulted from the progressive degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the pars compacta region of substantia nigra [1][2][3][4]. The age at PD onset is approximately 55 years, and always occurs among old people with the incidence rising from 1% in the population aged >60 years to 4% in those aged >80 years [5,6]. Despite great advance in the understanding of PD pathophysiology, current therapy is unavailable for halting this neurodegenerative process [7].…”

“…Our sensor is thus sensitive enough to detect DA in this biological setting, especially when DA concentrations are low, e.g., in the central nervous system. This situation represents the usual clinical profile of a neurodegenerative disorder associated to Parkinson's disease (Yao et al, 2013), in which a major loss (4 80%) of dopaminergic neurons (responsible for DA production) is manifested (Spina et al, 1989). Based on these observations, we assume that the DA detection arises from a phosphorescent quenching process, which can be accounted for in terms of a pH dependent electron transfer from the QDs to oxidized dopamine quinone.…”

“…The US National Institute of Neurological Disorders classifies Parkinson's disease as the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, affecting approximately one million people in the US (Yao et al, 2013). This disease is related to the loss of brain cells that produce dopamine (DA).…”

“…Only AD is more frequent than PD among the neurodegenerative disorders (Yao et al 2013;de Lau and Breteler 2006). PD frequency is about 0.3 % in industrialized countries and increases from 1 % in individuals older than 60 to 4 % in the population older than 80 (de Lau and Breteler 2006), with a mean age of onset of around 60; however, in 5-10 % of cases, it begins before 50 years of age (Samii et al 2004).…”
