Scientists have uncovered that an emerging gene therapy for Parkinson disease creates new circuits in the brain associated with improved motor movement. These findings explain the therapeutic mechanisms involved in the emerging Parkinson gene therapy called AA2 GAD. They can help scientific and clinical communities by progressing AAV2 GAD into clinical trials while providing a better understanding about Parkinson disease treatment response and effectiveness.

renu general knowledge Current therapies and medications aid with symptoms but do not slow the underlying neural degeneration. Gene therapy which injects genes into cells to correct abnormalities in brain function is an emerging therapeutic approach for neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson disease. Recent phase 2 clinical trials have shown that delivering the gene glutamic acid decarboxylase GAD into a part of the brain called the sub thalamic nucleus had therapeutic effects for patients.  renu general knowledge and world vision subscribe this magazine.
