Sleep-wake rhythms in normal adults usually have a periodicity of 24 hours, while 48-hour sleep-wake cycles have been ...

Two small clinical trials tested the safety of injecting stem cells into the brains of Parkinson's patients and found no ...

Two small studies published recently in Nature offer early, but important, validation that stem cell treatments for Parkinson’s disease are viable.

The treatment involved creating nerve cells (neurons) derived from embryonic stem cells and transplanting them into the brains of 12 Parkinson’s patients. The injected cells produce a chemical called ...

Studies found that cell therapy could replenish dopamine-producing neurons in the brain New Delhi: Stem cell therapies are a safe and effective way of treating Parkinson's disease, according to ...

Two new studies suggest a step toward a future where stem cells can be used to repair or prevent damage to the brain, ...

Thriveworks explores whether a dopamine detox is really worth doing. Discover the proven benefits, common misconceptions, and ...

In a first-of-its-kind human trial, researchers transplanted iPS-cell-derived dopaminergic progenitors into patients with ...

Parkinson’s is a progressive disease caused by the loss of dopamine-producing neurons in the brain. This condition worsens over time. Because the brain relies on dopamine for motor control, it leads ...

The new trials used stem cell therapy to replace lost dopamine-producing neurons. In each study, researchers observed whether the new cells survived and whether dopamine production increased.
