Cases in point:

Inhibikase Therapeutics C-Abl inhibitor IkT-148009 science.org/doi/10.1126/sci...

"PD, IkT-148009 suppressed c-Abl activation to baseline and substantially protected dopaminergic neurons from degeneration when administered therapeutically by once daily oral gavage beginning 4 weeks after disease initiation. Recovery of motor function in PD mice occurred within 8 weeks of initiating treatment concomitantly with a reduction in α-synuclein pathology in the mouse brain." [emphasis added]

Inhibikase is running a phase 2 trial right now, but they're only accepting patients not taking medication. Further detail here: clinicaltrials.gov/study/NC...

Cinnamon

In this study: Reduction of Lewy Body Pathology by Oral Cinnamon link.springer.com/article/1...

Investigators used 10-month-old A53T mice. These mice are genetically modified to produce defective human alpha synuclein with the A53T mutation. Regarding these mice: alzforum.org/research-model...

"Moreover, around 10 months of age they begin to develop severe motor impairments (Lee et al., 2002). Early signs of impairment include wobbling and posturing."

PB. This report of yours just sounds too good to be true! Usual $64k question: why haven’t more people picked up on this?

The power of publicity. Big Pharma has a marketing budget of $20 billion per year in the US alone. When a Pharma PR department issues a press release, it is picked up by mass media and usually repeated here on this site about five times in separate posts. Cinnamon does not have a PR department.

Rats. Once again they discriminate against the old guy. "30 Years to 75 Years (I'm 77.)"
