numbSobbing, she throws her arms around me. “I just can’t take one more
thing. I’m totally overwhelmed. All the things I need to attend to are
flying around me, and as I try to grasp onto one, I come away empty.”
She rests in my embrace and the storm slowly subsides. Lying with her is […]

Discovery of ‘Master Controller’ Region of Alpha-Synuclein
Aggregation Opens Door to New Therapies
Mar 13, 2020 08:00 am | Forest Ray, PhD
Alpha-Synuclein AggregationScientists have discovered a “master
controller” region that regulates aggregation of
the alpha-synuclein protein, one of the distinctive features of
Parkinson’s disease that is known to lead to the progressive
degeneration of brain cells. Understanding how the master controller
works opens new opportunities in both the design of new therapies and in
understanding the disease itself. The […]

New Brain Pathway Key to Movement Found in PD Patients, Study Reports
Mar 13, 2020 07:00 am | Steve Bryson PhD
new brain pathwayPlacing electrodes directly in the brains of people
with Parkinson’s disease revealed a “hyperdirect” pathway between two
regions of the brain responsible for movement and cognition, a study
reported. This pathway was shown to be important in being able to stop
body movements once initiated. Modulating or controlling this pathway
may be a therapeutic strategy […]

Vermont Couple Shares Strategies on Managing Neurodegenerative Disease
Mar 12, 2020 09:30 am | Helen Simon
supportLike many couples, Joe and Linda Lacroix of Milton, Vermont,
spent much of their lives working, raising families, maintaining their
home, and planning for the future. Unlike most, however, there was
always a dark cloud looming on their horizon — a gene for Huntington’s
disease carried by Joe’s mother. After Joe, 67, was diagnosed in […]

Study Finds Higher Inflammatory Markers in GBA-associated Parkinson’s
Mar 12, 2020 07:00 am | Marisa Wexler
GBA mutations, Parkinson'sPeople with Parkinson’s disease associated
with mutations in the GBA gene have elevated levels of inflammatory
signaling molecules in their blood, a new study suggests. The study,
“Plasma Cytokines Profile in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease
Associated with Mutations in GBA Gene,” was published in the Bulletin of
Experimental Biology and Medicine. Some mutations in the gene […]

How Your Smartphone Can Help You Manage Parkinson’s
Mar 11, 2020 03:00 pm | Mary Beth Skylis
CBDMy dad was a firm believer in his flip phone and knew it would
survive if he dropped it from a considerable height. He counted on it to
connect him with his real estate clients and get the job done. After his
diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease, my siblings and I realized that voice

My Parkinson’s Journey Is Like a Seed Waiting to Sprout
Mar 11, 2020 09:00 am | Sherri Woodbridge
kitSometimes we say “I’m sorry” and we mean it. Sometimes we say “Thank
you” and we mean it. And sometimes, we don’t mean it at all. Let me
explain When we are overwhelmed with living, stress takes over and we
are weary and worn out. It feels as if we have nothing left to give. […]

Neurosteer Promotes Wearable Monitor to Detect Early Parkinson’s
Mar 11, 2020 07:00 am | Larry Luxner
NeurosteerWithin a few years, doctors will be able to remotely evaluate
patients for their risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s
disease and frontotemporal dementia — without having to hook them up to
expensive, cumbersome machines generally found only in hospitals. That’s
the vision of Israeli entrepreneur Nathan Intrator, CEO of Neurosteer.
“Millions of people suffer […]

MJFF Supports Lundbeck Research in Diagnosing Parkinson’s
Mar 11, 2020 07:00 am | Mary Chapman
Lundbeck grantThe Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research
(MJFF) is supporting efforts by pharmaceutical company Lundbeck to find
a new way to diagnose Parkinson’s Disease patients earlier and more
effectively. With a $1.3 million DKK (Danish krone) grant ($197,000
U.S.), Lundbeck plans to develop and validate a diagnostic test that
uses the cerebrospinal fluid that flows […]

Different Patient, Different Treatment: Precision Medicine Advances
for Parkinson’s Disease
Mar 10, 2020 07:00 am | Forest Ray, PhD
Lundbeck grantThe discovery that abnormal cellular mechanisms are
specific to distinct groups of sporadic Parkinson’s patients brings
precision medicine for this neurodegenerative disorder one step closer
to reality. A recent study suggests that identifying these individual
disease differences and assessing neuroprotective treatments specific to
each one is a promising approach to personalized treatments. The study,
