ImpactHigh impact
The conversations highlight significant implications for Parkinson’s research and possible treatment strategies, indicating high perceived impact.
Abstract in brief
Nicotine helps neurons survive and may protect against Parkinson's disease by reducing the levels of a protein called SIRT6, which is higher in Parkinson's patients.
The study shows that lowering SIRT6 levels decreases brain damage related to Parkinson's, while increasing SIRT6 makes the disease worse; nicotine appears to accelerate SIRT6 degradation, offering neuroprotection.
This suggests that targeting SIRT6 could be a potential strategy for treating Parkinson's and other neurodegenerative diseases, as it may play a harmful role in disease progression.]
@AMacnevins @SmokeFreeFdn @JayHart909 @RiccardoPolosa Aubergine & tomato also contain nicotine. Many plants produce own pesticidal repellent: Chilli Peppers & basil. Thankfully humans are not insects and neither are Vapers.
Nicotine shows a protective effect against Parkinson’s.
The dose maketh the poison.

One of most in depth studies I’ve ever read. The lengths these guys went to prove a point is commendable.
They built a custom cigarette smoking vacuum extraction device in order to create tobacco extract for cell studies. https://t.co/xMDtqw1j68

@aractic @StrayDogNZ no you are. https://t.co/fiAs3hWkZg
@lorrainesplace @StrayDogNZ nicotine and caffeine both have health benefits.
Coffee is a perfectly good delivery vehicle for caffeine as long as not full of sugar.
Cigarets on the other hand are not a good delivery vehicle for nicotine. But that doesn't make nicotine bad. https://t.co/fiAs3hWkZg
@KoNekoEko @cnviolations Because they are confusing consuming nicotine with smoking.
Nicotine itself is has been found to be a neuroprotective agent - to a degree.

Parkinson’s runs in my family.
Nicotine has long been known to be a neuroprotective agent for Parkinson's disease.
A U.S. Government-sponsored study of health among 200,000 veterans reported that smoking reduced Parkinson’s related deaths by 64%!
https://t.co/QH1oj3nHck
@DocLarus It's the opposite direction of our earlier findings with Sirt6 & PD in mice and humans. "Our data suggest that SIRT6 plays a pathogenic and pro-inflammatory role in Parkinson's...Inhibition of SIRT6 may be a promising strategy to ameliorate Parkinson's" https://t.co/q7BrSz7xeX.

@theElegantWorm My granddad went from classically trained pianist playing Chopin beautifully to struggling to tear a coupon. Parkinsons runs in my family, if I have to go black market to get my medicinal nicotine so be it.

@charliedrummond @nz_voter Could have something to do with the fact that it doesn’t need to be prescribed as it is readily available. My boss has Parkinson’s and his Dr told him to get nicotine patches to help with symptoms. https://t.co/ZG5Lw9ubpG
@hbowly @Theautisticedu1 @hollieahughes Agreed. There is quite a lot of research on the benefits of nicotine, especially so with Parkinson’s & preventing prey bodies. Nicotine itself is not the problem and is an anti inflammatory. https://t.co/6Mrw6UGwFw
