Genetically engineering botulinum toxin could help advance new treatments for everything from neurodegenerative disorders to cytokine storms.
According to researchers, Botulinum toxin, or Botox, injections can help to reduce the frequency of chronic migraines. Compared to those treated with a placebo, migraine suffers experienced 1.6 fewer attacks per month following Botox injections.
Researchers report botox may spread from the injection site to produce symptoms consistent with botulism, including muscle weakness and breathing problems.
