Any good news?

Hello all

Apart from those lucky mice any good news on the horizon?

it will be interesting to see what comes now that the Biogen Alzheimer’s trial was so successful. It may be that the drugs that target protein misfolding are successful after all! Fingers crossed.

Bydureon (a.k.a., Exenatide), a repurposed Type 2 Diabetes drug is now in third-stage trials in UK for stopping Parkinson’s in its tracks — results expected 2024. Testing — mice, open label, double blind — has been going on since 2010 and it has been positive every time.

According to a very sensitive test, Homeostasis Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), 2/3 of Parkinson’s patients are supposed to be insulin resistant. IR may be treated with Bydureon (Exanatide). Just an angle that might get us one step closer to getting Bydureon.

South Korean researchers have learned how to dial our cells back to stem cell stage -- and are now administering monkey stem cells to parts of their brains that are short on dopamine producing cells -- with the hope they will fill in and take over the job.

Started this before with stem cells from other monkeys and had some success I think until local immune systems attacked foreign cells.

So there is even realistic hope for a cure.
