    .

    At the same time, Asklepios BioPharmaceutical (AskBio), another Bayer company, has also promoted a gene therapy research program that also aims to provide cutting-edge treatments for Parkinson's disease
    .

    The project is currently in the phase 1b clinical research phase and is recruiting and evaluating patients to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of the drug
    .

    Parkinson's disease is the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder, affecting more than 10 million people worldwide
    .

    It is caused by the damage of nerve cells (neurons) in the brain, which leads to a decrease in the level of dopamine (a neurotransmitter involved in memory or exercise processes).
    The most important and debilitating symptom is the progress of motor control.

    .

    Usually the early symptom of this disease is a tremor in one hand
    .

    Other symptoms include stiffness, cramps, and dyskinesias (involuntary, unstable, writhing movements of the face, arms, legs, or trunk)
    .

     At present, dopamine substitutes (such as levodopa) are commonly used to reduce the symptoms of the disease, but their effect will be weakened as the disease progresses.
    There is currently no available therapy that can fully alleviate the disease
    .

     Bayer hopes that the Parkinson's stem cell + gene therapy pioneered by its company can change this situation, and fully understand the root cause of this destructive disease, and achieve treatment results beyond symptomatic treatment
    .

    Bayer believes in the bright prospects of gene and stem cell therapy, so it has invested heavily in these two projects in the past few years
