Imagine diagnosing Parkinson s disease not with pricey scans or subjective checklists, but with a simple ear swab. Scientists in China have developed a promising early...
Researchers have developed a way to edit the genetic sequences at the root of Huntington's disease and Friedreich's ataxia. If longer than a certain threshold length,...
A research team has demonstrated how the energy levels of individual neurons in the brain change during so-called spreading depolarizations -- waves of activity that occur...
For millions of people around the world with essential tremor, everyday activities from eating and drinking to dressing and doing basic tasks can become impossible. This...
Researchers confirm and explore the role of estrogen-related receptors in regulating energy production in muscle cells during exercise. The findings indicate that developing a drug to...
In neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, proteins accumulate in the body's cells, fold incorrectly and clump together to form larger aggregates. Normally, cells are...
People who eat more ultra processed foods like cold breakfast cereal, cookies and hot dogs are more likely to have early signs of Parkinson's disease when...
Researchers found that inhibiting GSK-3 led to less defects in the axonal transport process and less neuronal cell death, while inhibiting ERK1 led to more transport...
Researchers have discovered a new biomarker for Parkinson's disease. A misfolded protein facilitates reliable diagnosis even in the early stages of Parkinson's disease in body fluids.
While a comprehensive cure-all to these neurological conditions is unlikely, scientists are making headway into understanding their fundamental characteristics with the hope of preventing or alleviating...
