A Cure for Parkinson's
By Website Introductions at 02/24/08 12:27 Highly controversial yet highly helpful, stem cell research is probably the next big thing in health research. Actually, it is now the big thing in research! It's promising, potentially giving us the power to save more human lives. AS proof, just read this article about a stem cell operation in China. Over three million stem cells were fused into her head to cure her of Parkinson's disease. Imagine that, a cure for Parkinson's disease!

    Mouse with Iron Disorder Offers Clues to Parkinson's, Similar Diseases Mice engineered to lack a gene involved in iron metabolism may provide important clues for deciphering the nature of a group of brain disorders-similar to Parkinson's Disease-affecting movement, according to a study by researchers at the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD). The researchers reported in the February issue of Nature Genetics that mice lacking the gene for iron regulatory protein 2 (IRP2) develop iron deposits in key areas of the brain. The progressive deterioration of the mice's nervous system is like that seen in people with Parkinson's Disease and Multiple System Atrophy (also known as Parkinson's Plus). "Researchers have long debated whether the characteristic iron deposits of these diseases are the cause or the result of the disease process," said Duane Alexander, M.D., Director of the NICHD. "This is a strong clue that iron may play a causative role in Parkinson's and similar disorders."

What is Parkinson's Disease?
Parkinson's disease is a disease of the central nervous system that causes problems with body motions, including tremor (shakiness), rigidity (muscle stiffness), slowed body movements, unstable posture, and difficulty walking. It happens when nerve cells (neurons) in a part of the brain called the substantia nigra gradually die. These cells normally produce dopamine, a chemical that helps to relay messages between areas of the brain that control body movement. The death of cells in this area of the brain leads to abnormally low levels of dopamine, which makes it difficult for a person with Parkinson's disease to control muscle tension and muscle movement, both at rest and during periods of activity.

Research Findings Offer Insight into Parkinson's Disease
The test bed offers a computational framework for generating hypotheses about treatments that can be adapted readily to state-of-the-art, high-throughput virtual screening of pharmacophores as potential lead compounds. Academic and pharmaceutical companies could use such a modeling system for further testing and improving potential pharmacophores and other palliative therapies. The researchers conducted a comprehensive investigation of aS penetration into the
membrane, including a thorough study of pore creation. They employed a computational approach that used the NAMD molecular dynamics package, along with the MAPAS program and a set of docking programs on the Blue Gene/L computer system. Together, the programs enabled the team to make predictions for conformational changes of proteins, explore protein-protein interactions and/or aggregation, and study interaction of proteins individually or as a complex with the membrane. The computational work conducted in this research also has significant benefits in driving the creation of new simulation capabilities.

Early detection for Parkinson’s disease 07 September 2006
Prof Peter Schofield, Dr Kay Double,
Minister for Health and Ageing Tony Abbott The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) has again highlighted UNSW research in its annual publication, 10 of the best.
The Minister for Health and Ageing Tony Abbott launched the booklet at UNSW last week.
Dr Kay Double, who is based at the Prince of Wales Medical Research Institute (POWMRI), has been acknowledged for her work, which could lead to an early test for Parkinson’s disease.
Parkinson’s disease is currently diagnosed only after signs such as slowness, stiffness and tremor appear.
Dr Double and her team have developed a new blood test that will provide early detection for the loss of neuromelanin – a pigment unique to human brains - and this may predict the onset of Parkinson’s. The work is currently being commercialised.
“We found that the pigment in the healthy brain protects the cells from free radical-damaging molecules and other toxins,” she said. “In the Parkinson’s diseased-brain, the pigment is changed so that instead of protecting the cells, it becomes toxic itself.
“This research has also highlighted the potential to develop new treatments to slow down, or even stop altogether, brain cell death,” said Dr Double.

Parkinson's Disease
Statistics
UK [1]
  • Generally, in the UK, one in 500 people, around 120,000 individuals have Parkinson's About 10,000 people in the UK are diagnosed each year Symptoms first appear, on average, when a patient is older than 50 One in 20 of those diagnosed each year will be aged under 40 years Statistically, men are slightly more likely to develop Parkinson's than women

What is it? Parkinson's is a progressive neurological condition affecting movements such as walking, talking, and writing. Average age of onset is around 60 years and the risk of getting Parkinson's increases with age. Younger people can also have Parkinson's and is known as " young-onset Parkinson's disease" if diagnosed in someone aged under 40 years
Symptoms
Parkinson's has three main symptoms: Tremor
Usually begins in one hand or arm and is more likely to occur when the part of the body affected is at rest. Tremor will usually decrease or disappear when the affected part is being used and often becomes more noticeable when a person with Parkinson's is anxious or excited. About 70% of people with Parkinson's have a tremor and it is slightly less common in younger people with Parkinson's Muscular rigidity or stiffness
This is a common early sign in untreated people with Parkinson's. People may experience problems turning round, getting out of chair, turning over in bed, or making fine finger movements, such as fastening a button, because of rigidity. Some people find their posture becomes stooped, or that their face becomes stiff, making facial expressions more difficult

    Parkinson's Disease
    Parkinson’s disease ("PD"), a neurodegenerative disorder, was originally described by James Parkinson in 1817. In his original “essay on the shaking palsy”, Parkinson stated that “until we are better informed respecting the nature of this disease the employment of internal medicines is scarcely warrantable”. Nearly two centuries later and despite major advancements, the aetiology/epidemiology of PD remains undetermined. PD is a slowly progressive, degenerative disease, and is the most common movement disorder in middle or late life. There are approximately 1 million affected individuals in the United States alone, representing 1% of the population at 65 years, increasing to 4-5% of 85 year-olds with roughly 50,000 new cases arising each year producing an annual estimated cost of $5.6 billion.

Parkinson's disease In Parkinson's disease, dopamine production becomes irregular and inadequate and nerve cells cannot properly transmit messages. This results in the loss of muscle function. By providing an even, adequate supply of medication that the body converts into dopamine, neurons are able to transmit messages and tremors improve. Need an appointment?

SRY, the protein that determines male gender, was discovered by British scientists in 1990. Dr Harley joined the team and was the first to show functions of the SRY protein in males. SRY is passed from father to son on the Y chromosome and is not present in females. This research will be published in the 21st of February edition of Current Biology , and is
currently featured in Nature

Parkinson Disease definition
A progressive, degenerative neurologic disease characterized by a TREMOR symptom that is maximal at rest, retropulsion (i.e. a tendency to fall backwards), rigidity, stooped posture, slowness of voluntary movements, and a masklike facial expression. Pathologic features include loss of melanin containing neurons in the substantia nigra and other pigmented nuclei of the brainstem. LEWY BODIES are present in the substantia nigra and locus coeruleus but may also be found in a related condition (LEWY BODY DISEASE, DIFFUSE) characterized by dementia in combination with varying degrees of parkinsonism.
