Folinic acid shows potential for Parkinson’s disease in fruit flies

A folinic acid-enriched diet reduced neuronal degeneration in adult fruit flies compared with those given a normal diet, researchers have discovered

Researchers tested the effects of folinic acid, a direct precursor for the active form of folic acid that penetrates the brain in mammals, in a fruit fly model of early-onset Parkinson’s disease.

Results from previous research using fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster) and human cells have indicated that folic acid can prevent age-related neuronal degeneration. But in humans, dietary folic acid is not readily available to the brain and must undergo conversion to its active form.
In a follow-up study published in Science Matters[1] (online, 9 March 2017), researchers tested the effects of folinic acid — which is a direct precursor for the active form of folic acid that penetrates the brain in mammals — in a fruit fly model of early-onset Parkinson’s disease.
They found that a folinic acid-enriched diet significantly reduced neurodegeneration, compared with a normal diet, given to adult flies up to 20 days before neurodegeneration was measured.
The team concludes that the lack of treatments available and the familiar safety profile of folinic acid mean it could be worthwhile exploring its use for the prevention or treatment of Parkinson’s disease.

  1. I'M TOTALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUS/HIV/AIDS
    HIV/Herpes is a serious and recurring condition that cannot be cured by drugs or injections by USA Doctors. But the best way to fight and get rid of  herpes virus permanently is to take natural herbal remedies, I read about DR JAMES, the great herbal Doctor, who cures people of HIV with his powerful herbal medicine. I contacted him to find out how he could help me, and he told me never to be worried that he would help me with the natural herbs' medicine! After 2 days of contacting him he told me the medicine is ready, and he sent it to me via DHL COURIER SERVICE and it got me in 3 days! I used the medication as he prescribed for me (MORNING and EVENING) and I was cured! It's really like a dream, but I'm so happy! For people suffering from the following diseases Alzheimer disease, Eczema, Shingles, MS, Bulbous Pemphigoid, Diabetes, cancer, Pcos, hypothyroidism, vaginal rashes, Herpes, COPD, HIV, arthritis, HPV, liver disease, autoimmune diseases, Parkinson's disease, Lupus Schizophrenia, Autism, Bipolar disorder, Infertility Get your EX back, and more should contact him for his herbal medicine, because I am a living witness, and I was cured of herpes virus. And DR James medicine is legitimate. I sent him what he asked for, and he sent me his medication which I took for 2 weeks and today I am here with a negative result. When I went for the test, I was so happy after I took his herbal mix medicine. CONTACT DR JAMES FOR A PERMANENT CURE Email: DRJAMESHERBALMIX@GMAIL.COM.
    He's a good man and he will help you
