19th Century Therapy for Parkinson's Disease May Help Patients Today
April 19, 2012 — In the 19th century, Jean-Martin Charcot, the celebrated neurologist, developed a "vibration chair," to relieve symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Charcot reported improvements in his patients, but he ... > full story -
Parkinson's Protein Causes Disease Spread in Animal Model
April 17, 2012 — Researchers have shown that brain tissue from a Parkinson's disease mouse model, as well as synthetically produced disease protein fibrils, injected into young, symptom-free PD mice led to spreading ... > full story -
Metformin Can Substantially Reduce the Risk of Parkinson's Disease in Diabetes, Study Suggests
April 16, 2012 — A major 12-year study based on a Taiwanese population cohort has demonstrated that not only does diabetes increase the risk of developing Parkinson's disease more than twofold, the use of ... > full story -
How Parkinson's Disease Starts and Spreads
April 16, 2012 — Injection of a small amount of clumped protein triggers a cascade of events leading to a Parkinson’s-like disease in mice, according to a new ... > full story -
How Embryonic Stem Cells Orchestrate Human Development
April 5, 2012 — Researchers show in detail how three genes within human embryonic stem cells regulate development, a finding that increases understanding of how to grow these cells for therapeutic ... > full story -
Eating Flavonoids Protects Men Against Parkinson's Disease, Study Finds
April 4, 2012 — Men who eat flavonoid-rich foods such as berries, tea, apples and red wine significantly reduce their risk of developing Parkinson's disease, according to new ... > full story -
