A breakthrough study has uncovered a hidden player in Parkinson’s disease—24-OHC, a cholesterol metabolite that fuels the spread of harmful protein clumps in the brain. Researchers found that high levels of this metabolite accelerate neuron damage and motor dysfunction, while blocking its production in mice significantly slowed disease progression. This discovery opens the door to [...]from SciTechDaily https://ift.tt/DkPRd92
