Gene therapy shows promise for easing Parkinson's disease
A small, early study of 12 patients in New York tested a gene therapy for Parkinson's disease. Billion copies of a gene were delivered to the brain to boost GABA production, aiming to calm overactive circuits. No side effects were observed over a year, with some symptom improvements evident by three months and persisting at study end. The lead researcher cautioned that safety was the focus and efficacy requires further testing.
