Interesting article. What strikes me is that they are already testing it on humans. I wonder about the results. I have to admit though, that the med is not very practical. If it works, you need to take 32 tablets a day for neuroprotection. But if there are no extreme side-effects and it works ... why not ?

Anyway, the article is from 2011. And it states results would be published in a few months. We are now 1 year later. I didn't find any results. Also not on the website of the Michael J Fox foundation. It is really annoying to have no clue about such research that seems very promising in the beginning.

If it is the same study. it says here that they were looking for $$$ to fund study that will start in 2012.

Thanks for this. It is good to know it was tested on people and it appears to be safe. I hope they find the money soon to start the next clinical phases.

I found these articles that seems to be follow-up published May 2012.

Also one mentioning MJFF for funding some of the research

try google with time limit 2012, not sure there is as much progress as hoped but things are moving. I'm not sure this is as inclusive as you wanted but research/academia moves slower than we'd like.

Dogma, very interesting articles. Especially the last one. That's some ground breaking result I would say. With this technique you can get any protein passed the BBB. Amazing. I read about something similar yesterday somewhere on http://www.parkinsons.org.uk/.

Is this the article? Interesting indeed.
