I posted this "over there" the weekend before the recent BLASToff to .08
some basic DD I posted over the week end

if someone ask you for the most important piece of DD you
have MAKE THEM READ IT....and within the article this part is key
"The data obtained in this study provide clear evidence that MANF had a strong positive and restorative effect on the behaviour of animals in this pre-clinical Parkinson's disease study when delivered to the substantia nigra, whereas GDNF had no such effect," said John W. Commissiong PhD, Chief Scientist at Amarantus and former Head of the Neurotrophic Factors Group at the National Institutes of Health. "The localization of the drug treatment in this study is critical because, as Parkinson's disease progresses, dopaminergic nerve terminals typically retract from the striatum towards their cell bodies in the substantia nigra, resulting in the disruption of the basal ganglia network that is responsible for proper motor function. Translated, the longer you have Parkinson's disease, the less likely a neurotrophic factor will work when delivered to the striatum because there are fewer dopaminergic nerve terminals remaining to act on, and so neurotrophic factor drugs for later-stage patients will likely work best when delivered to the substantia nigra. No neurotrophic factor other than MANF has demonstrated efficacy in the neurorestoration behavioural 6-OHDA model of Parkinson's disease when delivered to the substantia nigra, so this makes today's result very significant. We are currently working to complete the analysis of histology data to confirm that it is in fact dopaminergic re-innervation of the striatum that is responsible for the results reported today. We expect to release the final results, including histology, to the public when the final data package is assembled in the next few months, and we will submit the final study report and manuscript for publication to a peer-reviewed scientific journal jointly with our academic collaborators and study sponsors at the same time. If the histology data confirm the mechanism underlying the behavioural results reported today, the biology causing today's result would represent a major scientific achievement that could lead to a medical breakthrough in treating Parkinson's disease."
