NLX-P101 Uses, Dosage, Side Effects and more
NLX-P101, gene therapy is developed by Neurologix to treat Parkinson’s disease. The gene is glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD), whose product synthesizes the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain, (gamma)-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and targets the subthalamic nucleus (STN), which is overactive in patients with Parkinson’s disease. NLX-P101 is being evaluated as a therapeutic drug when injected into this deep brain structure that is known to function abnormally in Parkinson’s patients.
