For many people with Parkinson's disease, the body stops moving the way it used to. A hand may tremble at rest. Muscles may stiffen. Walking can become slower and balance more uncertain. The most effective treatment remains L-dopa, also called levodopa, a medication that can dram

A few tears may someday reveal important clues about a person's neurological health. Researchers reporting in ACS Omega developed a low-cost electrochemical sensor designed to detect dopamine, a neurotransmitter involved in movement, learning, motivation and emotional regulation.

A landmark study led by Lund, Sweden, has shown that transplanting stem cell-derived dopamine progenitor cells into the brain is feasible. Eight patients were transplanted in the first clinical trial, and no serious side effects linked to the transplanted cells were seen during t

New clinical data from the STEM-PD Phase I/II clinical trial have been presented at the ISSCR 2026 Annual Meeting. The study reports 12-month outcomes evaluating a cryopreserved, off-the-shelf dopaminergic progenitor cell product derived from human pluripotent stem cells for the

Interim clinical findings from the first Phase I/IIa trial using autologous-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived dopamine neuron precursor cells, along with the novel quality-control tools developed to manufacture these individualized therapies, have been presented by Jea

A new brain imaging study led by researchers at the Center for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), published in eBioMedicine, provides the strongest evidence to date that long COVID is associated with injury to dopamine-releasing neurons in the brain—a finding that may explain sy

Scientists at the Department of Cell Biology of the University of Malaga have taken a step forward in the search for more effective treatments for pain with a new study that advances efforts to mitigate the addictive effects of morphine—one of the main drugs used for this purpose

Scientists at Newcastle University's Neural Circuits Laboratory, in collaboration with researchers at the Blue Brain Project (EPFL, Switzerland) and leading institutions in Spain, have published a study that advances understanding of the brain's chemical messengers—acetylcholine,

Edital do Concurso Prefeitura de Porto Alegre foi publicado e oferece oportunidades de nível médio para a carreira de fiscalização municipal O edital do concurso da Prefeitura Municipal de Porto Alegre, município do estado do Rio Grande do Sul, foi publicado no Diário Oficial do

Researchers at the University of Münster and Ruhr University Bochum have demonstrated for the first time in real time that the body's own defense cells use catecholamines—neurotransmitters such as dopamine and adrenaline—to communicate via the same chemical signals as nerve cells

Pesquisadoras do Reino Unido investigam pela primeira vez como as flutuações hormonais ao longo do mês intensificam os sintomas do transtorno de déficit de atenção em mulheres.

Uma iniciativa britânica quer levar estúdios musicais a bibliotecas públicas — e a ciência explica por que práticas criativas são também um poderoso ato de skincare.
