🧠 Parkinson & Inflammation💥
@JCI_insight
Parkinson's disease (PD) involves the loss of dopamine neurons in the brain. Research shows that inflammation, particularly involving astrocytes, may contribute to this process. @txell_pons, @angiedidomenico, @BigSpinLab, @agrrp, Antonella Consiglio and their colleagues used astrocytes derived from PD patients' stem cells and found they release high levels of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-6, which harms dopamine neurons by binding to IL-6 receptors. Treatment with Tocilizumab, an anti-IL-6 receptor antibody, prevented this damage. Postmortem brain analysis of early-stage PD patients confirmed these findings. This suggests targeting IL-6 signaling in astrocytes could be a promising therapeutic approach for PD.

🧠 Aurora Scrivo (@AuroraScrivo1), investigadora de l'@idibell_cat , ha estat escollida pel programa Beatriu de Pinós!
En els pròxims anys, gràcies a aquest finançament, estudiarà el paper de l’autofàgia en la neurodegeneració de #Parkinson
Moltes felicitats, Aurora! 👏
Introducing our lines of research and our team to all IBUB members during the IBUB research day at Palau Macaya in Barcelona. Great day, great science and great friends! @IBUB_UB

🔬Fantàstica la ponència de Irene Fernández a la II #JornadaLabIB. Ús de les cèl·lules mare de pluripotència inducida (iPSC) per a modelar la malaltia de Parkinson. @ConsiglioLab@idibell_cat
Happy to share our last article in @EmboMolMed
We generated the first iPSCmodel of THD that recapitulates pathological features. The study highlights the importance of prenatal treatment with L-Dopa in cases of THDB.
