What are Some Disorders Related to Structural Connectivity?
- Neurodegenerative Diseases: Conditions like Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease involve the loss of neuronal connectivity. - Muscular Dystrophies: These are a group of diseases that weaken the musculoskeletal system and hamper locomotion due to faulty structural connectivity in muscle tissues. - Cancers: Uncontrolled growth and metastasis in cancers can disrupt normal structural connectivity within and between tissues.
