          Cough Medicine Shows Promise in Slowing Parkinson’s Dementia

          A clinical trial has revealed that Ambroxol, a common cough medicine in Europe, may help slow cognitive decline in people with Parkinson’s disease dementia. The 12-month study found that the drug stabilized psychiatric symptoms, protected against brain damage, and even improved cognition in genetically at-risk participants.

          PET Imaging Maps Brain Inflammation in Progressive Speech Disorder

          A novel PET imaging study has identified unique patterns of neuroinflammation in patients with progressive apraxia of speech (PAOS), a rare disorder that impairs the brain’s ability to plan speech. Using TSPO PET scans, researchers found elevated inflammation in brain regions involved in movement and speech, particularly in patients who also showed signs of Parkinson-plus syndromes.

          Ear Wax Reveals Parkinson’s Disease Biomarkers

          A novel screening method for Parkinson’s disease (PD) analyzes the volatile compounds in ear wax to detect early signs of the condition. Researchers found that four specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are significantly different in people with PD.

          Oral-Gut Bacteria Linked to Dementia Risk in Parkinson’s Disease

          A new study has found that bacteria from the mouth may migrate to the gut and contribute to cognitive decline in people with Parkinson’s disease. Researchers identified harmful microbes and their toxins in the gut of Parkinson’s patients with dementia, suggesting a possible link between oral hygiene, gut health, and neurodegeneration.

          Link Found Between Autism and Early-Onset Parkinson’s Risk

          A large-scale Swedish study has found that individuals with autism are at significantly higher risk of developing early-onset Parkinson’s disease. Researchers followed over two million people and discovered that those with autism were four times more likely to develop the neurodegenerative condition before age 50.

          Exercise enhances the effectiveness of stem cell-derived neuron transplants in a Parkinson’s disease (PD) rat model. Transplanted neurons alone improved basic motor functions, but when combined with voluntary exercise, the rats displayed significantly better agility and paw control.

          Ultra Processed Foods May Accelerate Parkinson’s Brain Changes

          A large new study shows that consuming high amounts of ultra processed foods may be linked to early indicators of Parkinson’s disease. Researchers tracked over 42,000 adults for up to 26 years, finding that those eating 11 or more daily servings of ultra processed foods were 2.5 times more likely to show multiple prodromal Parkinson’s symptoms.

          Psilocybin Shows Promise for Parkinson’s Mood and Motor Symptoms

          A new pilot study reveals that psilocybin—the compound found in psychedelic mushrooms—may significantly improve mood, cognition, and motor function in people with Parkinson’s disease. The compound was well tolerated, with only mild side effects, and benefits persisted for weeks after dosing. While the study was primarily designed to test safety, researchers observed meaningful and lasting improvements in multiple symptoms.

          Brain’s Switching Mechanism Revealed: How We Rapidly Change Actions

          New research shows that switching between actions is not simply stopping and starting again, but a unique brain mechanism that suppresses the previous action to initiate a new one. Using computational models, behavioral tasks, and clinical data from Parkinson’s patients, researchers found that stopping and switching are distinct cognitive motor processes.

          New Biomarker Enables Early, Accurate Diagnosis of Parkinson’s

          Researchers have identified a biomarker in spinal fluid that can detect Parkinson’s disease in its early stages with over 90% accuracy. Using a patented immuno-infrared sensor (iRS) technology, they measured the misfolding of the alpha-synuclein (αSyn) protein, a key driver of the disease.

          AI Tool Predicts Toxic Protein Structures Behind Brain Disorders

          A new AI tool called RibbonFold is revolutionizing how scientists understand misfolded proteins linked to Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Unlike existing tools such as AlphaFold, which predict correctly folded proteins, RibbonFold is specifically designed to model the twisted, ribbonlike shapes of amyloid fibrils that accumulate in neurodegenerative diseases.

          Shared Protein Link Found Between Parkinson’s and Cancer

          A new study reveals that the protein alpha-synuclein, known for its role in Parkinson’s disease, also contributes to the development of melanoma by promoting excessive DNA repair and cell proliferation. While in neurons, excess alpha-synuclein leads to cell death, in melanoma cells it enables uncontrolled growth by recruiting repair proteins to DNA breaks.
