Grant Activity:
Protecting the Gut: A Novel Therapeutic Avenue for Parkinson’s Disease
Purpose:
Most patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) develop gut dysfunction. Symptoms, including constipation and malabsorption, often present decades before the onset of motor deficits associated with PD and are hypothesized to arise from abnormalities in the nervous system of the gut. This research project aims to understand the mechanisms through which these abnormalities develop and will test a clinically approved compound that has demonstrated gut protective properties for the first time in PD.
