Protein droplets likely don't cause Parkinson's, study suggestsLiquid-liquid phase separation is not a precursor to formation of amyloid fibrils, a pathological hallmark of Parkinson's disease, shows a recent study. Rather, the formation of protein into liquid droplets may help to dissolve aggregated protein.

Gut protein may protect brain cells in Parkinson's diseaseNearly 10 million people worldwide suffer from Parkinson's disease (PD), a condition causing muscle rigidity and tremors due to the loss of the chemical dopamine in the brain. One cause of PD is exposure to toxins. In a recent study, Thomas Jefferson University's Scott A. Waldman, MD, Ph.D.
