          Researchers Unexpectedly Reprogram Mature Neurons in Mice

          Researchers have made a surprise discovery that could help provide treatment options for a range of conditions from Parkinson's disease to depression. Researching how to transform supportive brain cells into neurons, the scientists unexpectedly transformed mature inhibitory striatal neurons into dopamine producing neurons.

          Further evidence autoimmunity plays a role in Parkinson’s disease

          T cells that react to alpha-synuclein are most abundant in the early stages of Parkinson's disease but tend to disappear as the disease progresses. Signs of autoimmunity can appear in Parkinson's patients up to ten years before a diagnosis of the neurodegenerative disease. The detection of T cell response could be an early biomarker for Parkinson's, long before the physical symptoms begin to manifest.

          RIT2 Gene’s Promise in Halting Parkinson’s Disease Progression

          Researchers identified a protein that could play a significant role in preventing Parkinson's disease. The protein, linked to the RIT2 gene, is believed to control the accumulation of alpha-synuclein, which destroys neuronal cells and is a known indicator of the disease. Experiments conducted in cell models and on mice showed that increasing the expression of the RIT2 gene helped protect neurons from damage caused by alpha-synuclein.

          Weight Change in Early Parkinson’s May Be Tied to Changes in Thinking Skills

          People who lost weight soon after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease had a more rapid decline in thinking skills compared to those who maintained their normal weight. Those who gained weight had a slower decline in cognitive skills.

          It may be possible to optimize the stimulation parameters of brain implants in animals without human intervention. The study highlights the potential for autonomous optimization of prostheses implanted in the brain. The advance may prove to be beneficial for those with spinal cord injury and diseases that affect movement.
