Pathological Link Between Kidney Disease and Parkinson’s Disease Academic Background Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein (α-syn) in the brain, forming Lewy bodies (LBs) and Lewy neurites (LNs). In recent years, increasing evidence suggests that the pathological agg...

Scientific Paper News Report: Pathological Basis and Topological Properties of Structural Brain Networks in Parkinson’s Disease Patients Background and Research Objectives In Parkinson’s disease (PD), α-synuclein spreads between connected brain regions, leading to neuronal loss and brain network disruption. Using diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), t...

Study on the Protective Effects of Medicinal Microorganisms on Parkinson’s Disease Background Introduction Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the death of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra region of the brain. The aggregation of α-synuclein is a crucial factor in the pathogenesis of Park...
