• In middle age , slowed and silenced by parkinson ' s disease , he became a folk hero when he lit the torch for the 1996 olympic games in atlanta

• The lowered glutathione values and increased oxidative stress are thought to be responsible for the loss of dopamine - producing cells in the substantia nigra in parkinson ' s disease patients ( 7 , 8 )
  （研究7 , 8 ）认为谷胱甘肽含量减低和氧化压力的增加应是帕金森氏症病患脑部黑质层内失去制造多巴胺的细胞的原因。
• The researchers speculate that caffeine may protect against blepharospasm by blocking adenosine receptors , a mechanism that has also been proposed for its possible preentatie effects on parkinson ' s disease
  研究者推测咖啡因通过阻断腺苷受体，一种仍被认为可能有预防帕金森氏症作用的机制，来保护对抗睑痉挛。
• Parkinson ' s disease ( pd ) , a progressively degenerative disease of the nervous system , results from loss of dopamine in the brain and occurs mainly in people over the age of fifty

• The broad institute is expected to bring together various scientific disciplines to study stem cells , which some believe hold promise for treating an array of diseases including parkinson ' s and diabetes
  一些科学家相信，通过对干细胞进行深入研究，人类一定会找到治疗包括帕金森氏症和在内的一系列疾病的办法。
• In parkinson ' s disease nerve cells slowly degenerate in the part of the mid - brain ( the substantia nigra layer of the basal ganglia ) that controls movement , resulting in progressive loss of muscular co - ordination and balance
  帕金森氏症患者的中脑（神经中枢底部的黑质层）控制行动部份的神经细胞慢慢退化，导致肌肉协调与平衡能力的逐步丧失。
• For years , researchers had noted that people who smoke and who drink coffee seemed to have a lower risk of parkinson ' s , and some research has suggested that nicotine might protect brain cells and nerves in some way
  长久以来，研究人员就注意到，抽菸和喝咖啡的人罹患帕金森氏症的风险似乎较低；一些研究则指出，尼古丁或许能保护脑部细胞及神经。
• Rising numbers of artificial neural implants can replace diseased tissue , such as an fda - approved one for parkinson ' s patients that allows software updates to be downloaded from outside the body
  将人造的神经植入脑中以取代受损组织的案例也越来越多，好比某个得到美国食品及药物管理局核准、用来治疗帕金森氏症的植入装置，还可以从体外下载最新软体。
