I have obtained a copy of the Nature article that prompted this  report.  On
reading it, there are a couple of things that are worthy of  emphasis.

First, this was a study in mice, not humans.  Second, the article  offers no
explanation as to why isradipine (marketed as Dynacirc, as well as in  generic
formulations) was chosen, in preference to other calcium-channel  blockers.

The hypothesis is interesting and worthy of additional study, but seems to
be far from a PD cure.
