Molecular mechanisms of severe reactive astrocytes-induced neurodegeneration in Alzheimer’s disease. When astrocytes are exposed to toxic materials, such as amyloid plaques, their properties change, morphologically and functionally, and transform into reactive states. When the reactive astrocytes are severely induced, all the pathological features of Alzheimer’s disease, including neurodegeneration, are precipitated. In this process, we found that the increase of MAO-B activity and the production of hydrogen peroxide play an important role in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease. Credit: IBS/KIST
Though Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a common and fatal neurodegenerative brain disorder, most AD treatments are not making much headway in adressing its cause. Many AD drugs have targeted the…
The complete workflow is depicted in Fig. 1. To investigate the association between NPIs and AD, we initially conducted preprocessing and integration of biomedical triples...
Compared with other neurologic problems, few films have been dedicated to degenerative dementia. To our knowledge, this is the first systematic review about the...
