British scientists find cure for Parkinson's disease in tomatoes

London, 11 December 2020 Friday

Scientists have discovered an element in tomatoes for the dangerous Parkinson's disease that can help fight the disease, these elements have been prepared with the help of the genome crop of tomatoes.

According to a report in Science Daily, L-DOPA is a special resource used to treat Parkinson's disease, and the use of the tomato genome plant as its natural source will be helpful in helping those affected by Parkinson's disease.

The team, led by a doctor at the Johns Hopkins Center in Britain, found that the tomato fruit had been modified by a gene responsible for the analysis of L-DOPA, and reached a conclusion after completing several stages.

Although so far this report and its findings need to be brought together in a pipeline, according to the report, Professor Kathy Martin says Parkinson's disease is a growing problem in developing countries, where many diseases cannot afford the daily cost of L-DOPA.
