Reprogramming techniques to generate functional neurons could improve neurodegeneration in the future. A group of researchers from the Institute for Stem Cell Research (ISF) in Germany have found the pathways that play a role in improving the conversion of astrocytes into neurons.
Study conducted by researchers from Amsterdam UMC and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU) has discovered a biological cause for the persistent fatigue
An international team of researchers have developed a new blood test that could detect Parkinson’s disease earlier than current methods. The test, a real-time PCR-based assay, called Mito Dnadx, uses blood to identify damage to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) caused by the neurodegenerative condition. Based on the findings published in the journal Science Translational Medicine, the test could allow rapid, noninvasive and accurate identification of Parkinson’s disease (PD) before it causes much damage to the nervous system.
The genes of the mitochondria, the energy producers of our cells, can be negatively impacted by SARS-CoV-2, leading to dysfunction in multiple organs beyond the lungs.
