Scientists Just Found a Cholesterol Clue That Could Change Parkinson’s Treatment
A breakthrough study has uncovered a hidden player in Parkinson’s disease—24-OHC, a cholesterol metabolite that fuels the spread of harmful protein clumps in the brain. Researchers found that high levels of this metabolite accelerate neuron damage and motor dysfunction,
Cholesterol by-product linked to Parkinson’s disease
Chinese scientists say preventing cholesterol from being converted to 24-OHC might be an effective treatment for Parkinson's disease. The post Cholesterol by-product linked to Parkinson’s disease appeared first on Talker.
Cholesterol metabolite linked to Parkinson's disease development in mice
Researchers led by Zhentao Zhang at Wuhan University, China have discovered a cholesterol metabolite that plays a critical role in the development of Parkinson's disease in mice.
Cholesterol Metabolite Implicated in Parkinson’s Disease Pathology
Researchers suggest drugs that prevent cholesterol from being converted to 24-OHC might therefore be an effective treatment for Parkinson's disease.
Cholesterol Metabolite Linked To Parkinson's Disease Progression, Study Finds
A groundbreaking study by researchers at Wuhan University, China, has identified a cholesterol metabolite that plays a crucial role in the progressio
Parkinson's breakthrough as cholesterol by-product shown to play 'pivotal' role in disease progression
Parkinson’s disease may be linked to a cholesterol by-product that helps harmful protein clumps spread in the brain, a breakthrough study has revealed. Researchers discovered that having excess levels of the metabolite speeds up neuron damage and motor decline.
