Researchers at the University of Toronto have found a way to better control the preclinical generation of key neurons depleted in Parkinson's disease, pointing toward a new approach for a disease with no cure and few effective treatments.
Researchers find that diet significantly influences the gut microbiome in Parkinson's disease patients, potentially affecting disease progression and symptoms.
A new UCLA Health study found certain genetic variants could help explain how long-term pesticide exposure could increase the risk of Parkinson's disease.
No treatments are currently available to cure Parkinson’s disease. Better understanding the genetic foundation of this condition can help researchers find ways to slow or halt its progression.
