A novel wireless photothermal DBS nanosystem uses nanoparticles to target and restore damaged neurons in Parkinson’s disease, ...

Dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra and the ventral tegmental area are believed to be involved in reward-dependent behaviors. Consistent with this role, they are activated by rewards ...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder, primarily characterized by motor dysfunction.

Researchers developed a wireless photothermal nanosystem using gold nanoshells to stimulate thermosensitive TRPV1 receptors ...

Substantia nigra. Illustration showing a healthy substantia ... GDNF could induce neural regeneration and the recovery of motor function. While such approaches could help repair some of the ...
