abstract：:Features of autoimmunity have been associated with both Alzheimer's disease (AD) and with diabetes. In both diseases high levels of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) and their receptor (RAGE) have been detected in tissues and in the circulation. In addition high titers of antibodies directed against a RAGE-like p...

abstract：:Rigorous scientific research has identified multiple interactive mechanisms that parallel and are likely causative of the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Causative mechanisms include genomics, the creation of amyloid beta (Abeta), factors inhibiting the Abeta removal process, the transformation of Abeta to it...

abstract：:Rodents housed in an enriched environment, exercise by running or perform learning and memory tasks show an increase in hippocampal neurogenesis. We show that both environmental enrichment, as well as performance in the Morris water maze, a hippocampal-dependent learning task, leads to an increase in local VEGF expres...

abstract：:From a clinical as well as a neuropathological point of view Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been the focus of intense research for more than three decades. Most studies to identify morphometric correlates with the declining cognitive function in normal aging and AD have employed semi-quantitative methods to assess neuro...

abstract：:Cholesterol-induced production of amyloid beta (Abeta) as a putative neurotoxin in Alzheimer's disease (AD), along with epidemiological evidence, suggests that statin drugs may provide benefit in treatment of the disorder. We tested the effect of once daily atorvastatin calcium (80 mg; two 40 mg tablets) on cognitive ...

abstract：:To search for potential mechanism that might alter synaptic transmission following Abeta increase we have examined the presynaptic component of transmitter release. As parameters of synaptic transmission that might underlie presynaptic mechanisms, we have used paired-pulse facilitation (PPF), post-tetanic potentiation...

abstract：:Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) plays a crucial physiological role in termination of impulse transmission at cholinergic synapses through rapid hydrolysis of acetylcholine. In addition, it was implicated in amyloid plaque formation, a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and most of the drugs used in AD treatment are ACh...

This is expanded to clinical situations to clarify what can happen to patients after cholinesterase (ChE) inhibitor is administered and to avoid unnecessary adverse effects. The parasympathetic nervous system can affec...

abstract：:Mutations in presenilin 1 (PS1) cause early-onset familial Alzheimer;s disease (FAD). Although FAD accounts for less than 5% of all cases of Alzheimer;s disease (AD), extensive analyses of PS1 function have elucidated an important neuronal mechanism underling AD pathogenesis. PS1 is considered to be an essential compo...
