New mouse model of Parkinson's disease shows how it spreads from the gut
on June 26, 2019 at 4:51 pm
Parkinson's disease can begin in the gut and spread to the brain via the vagus nerve, researchers report. This pathway was observed in a new mouse model, which recapitulates both motor and non-motor deficits as well as early-stage and late-stage features associated with Parkinson's disease. […]

Neuronal Parkinson inclusions are different than expected
on June 26, 2019 at 4:49 pm
An international team of researchers challenges the conventional understanding of the cause of Parkinson's disease. The researchers have shown that the inclusions in the brain's neurons, characteristic of Parkinson's disease, are comprised of a membranous medley rather than protein fibrils. […]
