If Parkinson’s Were a Color, What Color Would It Be?
Feb 17, 2020 09:00 am | Sherri Woodbridge
cheering sectionDuring one of my many moments spent pondering frivolous
stuff, I recently was thinking about colors and the emotions they
represent. Here is what I came up with. I love the color yellow. It
reminds me of walking into spring, hoe in hand and clippers in tow. Then
I waltz into summer, with a song […]

Light-activated Protein Used to Improve Mitochondrial Function,
Reduce Parkinson’s Symptoms in Fly Study
Feb 17, 2020 07:00 am | Marisa Wexler
light-activated protein improves mitochondrial functionUsing a
light-activated protein to improve the function of mitochondria — cells’
powerhouses— could be a therapeutic strategy for Parkinson’s disease
(PD), a new study done in flies suggests. The results of the study,
“Light-driven activation of mitochondrial proton-motive force improves
motor behaviors in a Drosophila model of Parkinson’s disease,” were
published in Communications Biology. […]

(Neo is my brain’s neocortex, which I’ve mentioned in previous columns.)
“I’ve been called many things, yet still retain my sanity. I hope to do
so through this very stressful process of moving,” I respond. “How do
you plan to do that? You’re giving up your sanctuary!” […]

Cure Parkinson’s Trust, Van Andel Institute Give $4.5M to Support
Trials into New Treatments
Feb 14, 2020 07:00 am | Mary Chapman
Cure Parkinson's grantCure Parkinson’s Trust (CPT) and the Van Andel
Institute (VAI) will contribute $4.5 million in total to support a
global program that seeks to develop disease-modifying Parkinson’s
therapies. The three-year funding agreement backs the international
Linked Clinical Trials (LCT) initiative, established by the two
organizations in 2012 to identify treatments that might slow, stop, and

IGF-1 May Be Involved in Parkinson’s Development, Review Suggests
Feb 14, 2020 07:00 am | Margarida Azevedo, MSc
IGF-1Increasing evidence links insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1)
deficiency to the development and progression of Parkinson’s disease, a
review study said. Estrogen, the female sex hormone thought to hold
potential beneficial effects against Parkinson’s, or PD, may exert its
protective actions via IGF-1, the researchers said. The data may open
new avenues to develop combined […]

danceWould you — a person with Parkinson’s — ever call yourself a
dancer? An artist? Graceful? Well, it’s possible. Be open to the idea.
You may be surprised. I certainly was. Recently, I met David Leventhal,
the program director of Dance for PD. The program brings together
trained dancers who are experts at moving alongside […]

Memory-related Mild Cognitive Impairment May Be Linked to More
Severe Alpha-Synuclein Buildup, Researchers Say
Feb 13, 2020 07:00 am | Catarina Silva, MSc
Alpha-Synuclein BuildupMemory-related mild cognitive impairment in
Parkinson’s disease may be associated with a more severe buildup of
alpha-synuclein protein in the brain — such as that observed in more
advanced stages of the disease, a study finds. The results of the study,
“Neuropathological Findings in Parkinson’s Disease With Mild Cognitive
Impairment,” were published in Movement Disorders. […]

Palliative Care Leads to Better Quality of Life than Standard Care
for PDRD Patients, Study Finds
Feb 12, 2020 11:30 am | Steve Bryson PhD
Palliative carePalliative care — focusing on physical, psychosocial and
spiritual treatment — for people with Parkinson’s disease and related
disorders (PDRD) led to a significantly better quality of life (QoL)
than standard care alone, a study finds. Easing of both non-motor and
motor symptom severity was linked to palliative care intervention — and
those with the […]
