Article Synopsis
  • Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder marked by motor issues and reduced dopamine, with the MitoPark (MP) mouse model serving as a research tool to explore therapies.
  • One proposed treatment is a ketone ester-enriched diet (KEED) aimed at reducing mitochondrial stress and boosting neuronal energy, which may improve motor and dopamine signaling.
  • Results showed that starting the KEED before motor deficits appeared improved motor function in MP mice, while starting it afterward provided only modest benefits, suggesting that KEED could help delay the progression of motor dysfunction in PD.
