Motor Function

“This discovery challenges the longstanding view of dopamine as the primary transmitter in motor control. Ophthalmic acid offers a promising alternative for therapeutic interventions for Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders,” says the study’s co-corresponding author Amal Alachkar.

A new study presents evidence that 40 Hz vibration can reduce Alzheimer's disease pathology and symptoms in lab mice and improve their motor function. These images highlight reductions in the hallmark Alzheimer's disease protein phosphorylated tau (magenta) in primary somatosensory cortical neurons in Tau P301S model mice treated with 40 Hz tactile stimulation (right). An image from an untreated control is on the left.
