Could a simple drug intended to treat cancer treatment complications be the next big breakthrough in Parkinson’s Disease treatment? Dr. Jonathan Sackner-Bernstein, MD, is leading research on tyrosine hydroxylase inhibition as a novel approach to managing Parkinson’s symptoms and slowing disease progression. Unlike traditional treatments that focus solely on replacing lost dopamine, a previously FDA approved drug (RB-190) targets tyrosine hydroxylase (TH)—the enzyme responsible for dopamine production—offering a new way to reduce dyskinesias, oxidative stress, and dopamine imbalances in the brain.

In this episode, we’ll break down:
✅ What tyrosine hydroxylase does and its role in dopamine production
✅ Why too much dopamine in certain brain regions can be problematic
✅ How RB-190 could change the way we treat Parkinson’s Disease
✅ The groundbreaking work of Dr. Sackner-Bernstein and what it means for the future
