I see a few good studies mentioned in this forum, but I haven't seen any mention of caffeine or adenosine blockers. Findings from a longitudinal study examining the effects of caffeine found that people who drink a moderate amount of caffeine (or more) per day were less likely to develop Parkinson's disease, or for it to develop later in life. In response to that, several studies were done which strongly suggest that caffeine does indeed slow the progression of Parkinson's disease. Since caffeine works as an adenosine blocker, several studies were done to test the effects of adenosine blockers to slow the progression of Parkinson's. I've read several of these studies, and they all lead to the conclusion that adenosine blockers in general can reduce the amount of l-dopa needed to control Parkinson's, and can slow progression of the disease. All the studies I read have copyrights which expressly forbid posting them to online forums, so I can't post them here. If you're interested, you can search for scholarly articles about adenosine, caffeine and Parkinson's disease.

For pharmaceutical companies, looking for further exploration of small molecule therapy for PD. but just enough already with the palliatives, what we need is cell replacement therapy. It it terrible that DBS is the neuro's last words. In today's worlds of biochemical knowledge it is a shame that we are not ten years ahead on this.

To reverett123
i have read some of your 3600 posts -- and I agree with your basic attitude that its up to us to do waht we can rather than waiting for researchers to make the miracle breakthrough they keep telling us they will make if only we donate more to fund their research. In 1997 I was 41 years old when I was diagnosed wiith Parkinson's disease, in 2010 I began leading exercise classes for people with Parkinson's disease, and in 2013 I participated in my first masters slalom and giant slalom ski races. Vigorous exercise can enable us to beat expectations. David Quote:

Just read a book Younger Next Year which discusses diet and exercise and indicates that when exercising, you need to sweat to get the most benefit.
Also, another glimmer of hope discusses New research which: shows that, when properly manipulated, a population of support cells found in the brain called astrocytes could provide a new and promising approach to treat Parkinson's disease. These findings, which were made using an animal model of the disease, demonstrate that a single therapy could simultaneously repair the multiple types of neurological damage caused by Parkinson's, providing an overall benefit that has not been achieved in other approaches. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0128184809.htm |
