Research published in Nature, co-authored by ICVS’s Rui M. Reis, paves the way for new strategies in prevention and treatment.
Researchers from ICVS have discovered that compounds originated from the plant Hemerocallis citrina Baroni could have therapeutic potential for treating neurodegenerative diseases like Machado-Joseph Disease (MJD/SCA3) and Frontotemporal Dementia with Parkinsonism (FTDP-17). These diseases are characterized by the loss of neurons and severe motor difficulties.
Researchers at the Life and Health Sciences Research Institute (ICVS) of the University of Minho have taken an important step in the search for new therapies for Rett Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that still lacks an effective treatment. The results of the study, now published in the prestigious journal Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, show that the experimental drug NLX-101 may alleviate two of the most severe symptoms: irregular breathing and cognitive difficulties.
