Promising, Neural Stem Cells Reduce PD Symptoms in Humans

Yale University’s news release said that a research team from Yale, Harvard, the University of Colorado and the Burnham Institute had shown that neural stem cells reduce Parkinson’s Disease (PD) symptoms in primates. The primates with PD had better movement and appetite, and had diminished tremors after being injected wth human neural stem cells.

Professor Redmond Jr. said that even though the results are promising, it will be years to be realized as a therapy for humans with PD.
