Nanoparticle drug reverses Parkinson's-like symptoms in rats As baby boomers age, the number of people diagnosed with Parkinson's disease is expected to increase. Patients who develop this disease usually start experiencing symptoms around age 60 or older. Currently, there's no cure, but scientists are reporting a novel approach that reversed Parkinson's-like symptoms in rats. Their results could one day lead to a new therapy for human patients.
Scientists X-ray anti-inflammatory drug candidates Using an ultra bright X-ray source, scientists have decoded the molecular and three-dimensional structure of two promising drug candidates. The results provide a deeper understanding of the mode of action of these substances that have already entered clinical trials.
