TEL AVIV, Israel, Dec. 21 (UPI) -- A new study has found that a popular food supplement may be key to reversing the effects of Familial Dysautonomia, or FD, in patients.Researchers at Tel Aviv University used mice to study neuron degeneration caused by FD and found the food supplement phosphatidylserine could reverse the effects of the disease.FD is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder that affects aspects of autonomic nervous system functions such as swallowing, sweating and pain sensitivity.FD affects about 1 in 31 Jewish people of Eastern European, or Ashkenazi ancestry, and places them at risk for pulmonary and gastrointestinal complications.

A new genetic disease which results in neurodegeneration has been discovered by experts at the University of Sussex.In a study published today, Wednesday 21 December, in the top scientific journal Nature, the team from the University of Sussex's Genome Damage and Stability Centre (GDSC) reveal they have discovered the disease, ataxia oculomotor apraxia type XRCC1, which is caused by a genetic mutation that disrupts the repair of our DNA.The team discovered that when single strands of our DNA are damaged, a genetic mutation in a gene called XRCC1 causes a vital DNA-repairing enzyme (known as PARP1) in our bodies to over-activate.In people suffering from the new disease the scientists discovered the speeding up of this key enzyme actually triggers the death of brain cells.
