C60 Derivative Protects Brain in Parkinson’s Model

C60 Derivative Protects Brain in Parkinson’s Model A study tested carboxyfullerene (C3), a water-soluble derivative of [60]fullerene (C60), for its ability to protect brain function in macaque monkeys with Parkinson’s-like symptoms induced by MPTP, a toxin that mimics the disease. This was the first in vivo test of C3 as a neuroprotective agent in a […]
