   Study uncovers new target in Parkinson’s diseaseStudy uncovers new target in Parkinson’s disease
 
A new study has uncovered a relationship between the presence of Lewy bodies and neuronal cell death in Parkinson's disease.
 
 Individual damaged nerve cells cause neurodegenerative diseases
 
Individual damaged nerve cells cause neurodegenerative diseasesIf the sense of smell disappears, this can indicate a disease such as Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. However, unlike previously assumed, general degenerations in the nervous system do not play a leading role in the loss of the sense of smell with increasing age, but individual nerve cells or classes of nerves are decisive.
