But in their study, researchers at Yale University School of Medicine established a link between the two and […]

This neuron-killing protein travels from the gut to the brain by hijacking a nerve
A recent study published in the journal Neuron found that alpha-synuclein (a-syn), a protein genetically linked to Parkinson’s disease, spreads from the gut to the brain through the vagus nerve. Researchers at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore tested a previously proposed hypothesis suggesting that the gut-brain axis is involved in the progression of Parkinson’s — a […]
