Article Synopsis
- Scientists studied over 176,000 people to see how certain genes might protect against Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD).
- They found that specific types of a gene called HLA could help reduce the risk of these diseases and lower harmful proteins in the brain.
- This suggests that our immune system might help protect us from PD and AD, which could lead to new treatments in the future.
