Japanese researchers studied the effects of locally administered ASOs on mouse models of Parkinson's disease. Their research indicates that ASOs can help prevent the formation and spread of harmful alpha-synuclein aggregates in different brain regions, suggesting ASOs as a potential therapeutic strategy for preventing and controlling the progression of neurodegenerative diseases.
