Imbalanced motivated behaviors according to motor sign asymmetry in drug-naïve Parkinson’s disease
Few studies have considered the influence of motor sign asymmetry on motivated behaviors in de novo drug-naïve Parkinson’s disease (PD). We tested whether motor sign asymmetry could be associated with different motivated behavior patterns in de novo drug-naïve PD. We performed a cross-sectional study in 128 de novo drug-naïve PD patients and used the Ardouin Scale of Behavior in Parkinson’s disease (ASBPD) to assess a set of motivated behaviors.…
Stanford scientists 'totally surprised' by potential Parkinson's treatment discovery
A new Stanford Medicine study reveals a promising approach to slowing Parkinson's disease by targeting overactive LRRK2 enzymes with an MLi-2 inhibitor, showing neuron restoration in mice.
Side of onset influences non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease
Parkinson's disease often begins asymmetrically, affecting either the right or left side of the body first. Researchers from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and the Geneva University Hospitals (HUG) have demonstrated that this initial side of onset influences the progression of non-motor symptoms.
[NHK] A pharmaceutical company in Osaka is developing a treatment for Parkinson's disease using iPS cells, and the cells have been transferred to the first patient in a clinical trial in the United States...
A promising step forward in understanding Parkinson's disease: scientists from the HUG and the University of Geneva have discovered that the side of the body initially affected – left or right – influences the nature of the symptoms to come. This distinction could allow for a more targeted management of the disease.
