An RNA Key That Unlocks Innate Immunity
Improving Cell Replacement Therapy for Parkinson’s Disease
Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disease that affects dopamine signaling neurons in patients’ brains. Cell-replacement therapy shows some promise as a treatment for Parkinson’s. A recent paper in the journal Molecular & Cellular Proteomics reports a technical advance in selecting cells to use in this therapy. Cell-replacement therapy involves differentiating stem cells into dopamine-signaling, or dopaminergic, neurons…
