🚬 A link between carbon monoxide and Parkinson's disease may explain why smokers are at a lower risk of developing the condition, according to international research. The team monitored the health of over 500,000 Chinese adults over 12 years, including 1,131 people with Parkinson's and 2,949 with other neurodegenerative diseases. They investigated the impact of smoking through self-reported smoking frequency and measuring carbon monoxide in breath - usually an indicator of smoking. The researchers say both smoking history and exhaled carbon monoxide were linked to a lower risk of Parkinson's. While smokers generally had higher carbon monoxide levels in their breath, the researchers say non-smokers with high carbon monoxide levels also had a lower risk of Parkinson's - suggesting carbon monoxide may be independently protective against Parkinson's. Australian researchers highlight that smoking increases the risk of a host of different health problems, but say this finding could help us better understand why Parkinson's disease bucks the trend.

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation alleviates glial activation through suppressing HMGB1/TLR4 pathway in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease [2023]
https://doi.org/10.1007/s11033-023-08561-8

"This study showed that rTMS might be a promising method for alleviating neuroinflammation in PD rat models, and the effects might be mediated through the downregulation of the HMGB1/TLR4 pathway."

This review connects molecular biology and clinical neuroscience, showing how #miRNAs could transform how we diagnose and treat neurodegenerative diseases.

Sympathy to the family and friends of Patrick (“Pat”) R. Perry of Salinas, CA. Pat passed away peacefully on September 3 after battling Parkinson’s disease for more than 10 years.

"Pat spent much of his free time enjoying nature: hiking in Big Sur and the Ventana
Wilderness, hunting at the family deer club, fishing in Monterey Bay, and bike riding
along the coast.”

Australian food is grown with dangerous chemicals banned in other countries

"Australia has a global reputation as a source of clean food. In fact, the country has some of the most lax regulation of pesticide use in the western world."

Paraquat and Parkinson’s disease in agricultural producers
"The regulator (is) lagging behind. A 2023 report commissioned by the federal government found “serious allegations of chemical industry capture of the APVMA” and that it took far too long to finalise reviews of dangerous chemicals, including paraquat."

I have #YOPD ( #Parkinsons ) #disability

Also, love #scifi as well as hobby #boardgames #punkrock #FOSS #FLOSS #linux and much more.

I’m open and friendly. Please feel free to contact me. Love meeting new people.
