Overactivation may be the hidden driver of Parkinson’s. Researchers showed that when dopamine neurons work overtime, they burn out, break down, and die — echoing the same pattern seen in patients.

Researchers now have a powerful new way to understand the types of brain cells that are affected in neurodegenerative diseases and to uncover connections between conditions such as Parkinson's, ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Transplants of brain cells given to Parkinson's disease patients survive for 10 years or more, three teams of researchers reported on Sunday, but at least some of the ...

Researchers are using an advanced brain imaging method called MEG to understand why Parkinson’s drug levodopa doesn’t work equally well for everyone. By mapping patients’ brain signals before and ...

Long-term cycling programs appear to reshape brain signals in Parkinson’s patients Deep brain stimulation recordings reveal neural changes after 12 sessions Findings suggest dynamic exercise may ...

Parkinson's disease is characterized by the death of dopamine-producing neurons in a part of the brain responsible for motor ...

Imagine your brain as a bustling city where everything runs smoothly – traffic lights change on time, packages get delivered, and everyone knows exactly where they’re going. Now picture what happens ...

Parkinson's disease and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) may be genetically linked, with effects on brain volume, a large study has found. "There is strong evidence that ADHD and ...

More than 10 million people globally live with Parkinson’s disease, for which there is currently no cure. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical treatment that helps alleviate some movement ...
