¿Podría el 💉tocilizumab frenar la evolución del Parkinson? Así lo sugieren investigadores del @idibell_cat e @IBUB_UB.

Te lo cuenta @carmenfefe.

#RecercaUB | 🧠 Un estudi sobre #Parkinson, liderat per @ConsiglioLab, ha identificat unes cèl·lules cerebrals que ataquen i eliminen les cèl·lules nervioses que produeixen la dopamina, un neurotransmissor que controla el moviment voluntari i és clau en aquesta patologia.

«Si poguéssim trobar la forma correcta de modular el sistema immunològic, podríem alentir el procés de la malaltia», afirma A. Consiglio.

Our paper is finally out! We found that inflammed astrocytes induce neuronal degeneration in Parkinson’s disease through IL6. Great team work!!

New research reports that blocking IL-6 signaling (with Tocilizumab) prevents astrocyte-induced neurodegeneration in an iPSC-based model of #Parkinsons; IL-6/IL-6R signaling is increased in the SNc in postmortem brains at early stages of PD
