This disease has been linked to systematic defects in complex I of the mitochondrial inner membrane. Physiological signs of this disease include the accumulation of the protein alpha synuclein in deposits called Lewy bodies within the substantia nigra. It is characterized by the presence of bradykinesia. Treatment for this disease includes a combination of carbidopa and L-dopa, which address decreases in the neurotransmitter dopamine. For 10 points, name this disease tha
