Research may lead to new treatments for Parkinson's disease and other neurological disorders

eurekalert.org — “Scientists at Marshall University are conducting research that may someday lead to new treatments for repair of the central nervous system. The group has identified and analyzed unique adult animal stem cells that can turn into neurons. The neurons they found appear to have many of the qualities desired for cells being used in development of therapies for slowly progressing, degenerative conditions like Parkinson's disease and for damage due to stroke or spinal cord injury.View full resource at eurekalert.org

Can Inosine Repair Nerve Damage? | Health and Wellness News

wellnessresources.com — “Cutting edge research has identified an enzyme, Mst3b, that is essential for regenerating damaged axons (nerve fibers) in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. Their research shows that Mst3B is stimulated by inosine, opening the door for a simple nutritional strategy to help regenerate nerve health. Earlier animal research on inosine indicates that it can help repair nerve damage following a stroke.View full resource at wellnessresources.com
