Scientists Stop Harmful Brain Protein Linked to Parkinson’s

TL;DR Summary
Scientists in the UK have developed a peptide that stabilizes alpha-synuclein, a protein linked to Parkinson's and dementia, preventing harmful clumping in the brain. In animal models, this approach reduced protein buildup and improved movement, offering a promising avenue for future treatments of neurodegenerative diseases.
