Neuroscientists have made a dramatic breakthrough in their efforts to find

a cure for Alzheimer's disease. The use of a drug appears to quickly

reverse the pathological, cognitive and memory deficits caused by the onset

of Alzheimer's in mice.

Neuroscientists have shown that an enzyme overproduced in the brains of

Alzheimer's patients creates a blockade that shuts off genes necessary to

form new memories. Furthermore, by inhibiting that enzyme in mice, the

researchers were able to reverse Alzheimer's symptoms.

In a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease, memory problems stem from an

overactive enzyme that shuts off genes related to neuron communication.

Researchers genetically blocked the enzyme HDAC2, and 'reawakened' some of

the neurons -- restoring the animals' cognitive function.

A repression of gene activity in the brain appears to be an early event

affecting people with Alzheimer's disease, researchers have found. In mouse

models of Alzheimer's disease, this epigenetic blockade and its effects on

memory were treatable.

Antibodies that block the process of synapse disintegration in Alzheimer's

disease have been identified, raising hopes for a treatment to combat early

cognitive decline in the disease.

Researchers have identified the intracellular mechanisms regulated by

vitamin D3 that may help the body clear the brain of amyloid beta, the main

component of plaques associated with Alzheimer's disease. The early

findings show that vitamin D3 may activate key genes and cellular signaling

networks to help stimulate the immune system to clear the amyloid-beta

protein.

Some dementia patients show symptoms of a malfunctioning immune system. New

research shows that immune reactions against the body's own nerve cells can

be the cause of advanced dementia and an appropriate immune suppressive

therapy can develop with significant effectiveness.

Modern anesthesia is extremely safe. But as risks to heart, lungs and other

organs have waned, another problem has emerged in the elderly:

post-operative cognitive dysfunction. Mentally, some patients “just aren’t

the same” for months or longer after surgery. Other factors play a role,

but a small number of patients deteriorate mentally due to anesthesia per

se. Those with Alzheimer’s disease suffer exacerbations, and those without

the diagnosis may have it unmasked by anesthesia, suggesting some

relationship.

Researchers have developed a multitarget molecule, ASS234, which according

to the results of in vitro studies conducted, inhibits the aggregation of

the ß-amyloid protein, involved in Alzheimer's disease. At the same time,

ASS234 stimulates the cholinergic and monoaminergic transmission, key

factors involved in the cognitive function. In addition, ASS234 is able to

cross the blood–brain barrier with an elevated multipotent profile designed

on basis of donepezil (Aricept®), one of the few effective drugs in

palliative and symptomatic treatments of the disease.

A new class of drug shows early promise of being a one-size-fits-all

therapy for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, multiple sclerosis and traumatic

brain injury by reducing inflammation in the brain. A new study reports

when one of the new drugs is given to a mouse genetically engineered to

develop Alzheimer's, it prevents the development of the disease when given

during a newly identified therapeutic time window.

A study, performed in mice and utilizing post-mortem samples of brains from

patients with Alzheimer’s disease, found that a single event of a

moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) can disrupt proteins that

regulate an enzyme associated with Alzheimer’s. The new article identifies

the complex mechanisms that result in a rapid and robust post-injury

elevation of the enzyme in the brain.

Blocking the effects of amyloid b in Alzheimer's

disease<http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sciencedaily/mind_brain/dementia/~3/Mr_Dg\

During Alzheimer’s disease, 'plaques' of amyloid beta (Ab) and tau protein

‘tangles’ develop in the brain, leading to the death of brain cells and

disruption of chemical signaling between neurons. This leads to loss of

memory, mood changes, and difficulties with reasoning. New research has

found that up-regulating the gene Hes1 largely counteracted the effects of

Ab on neurons, including preventing cell death, and on GABAergic signaling.

Reviled substance involved in Alzheimer's can reverse paralysis in mice

A molecule widely assailed as the chief culprit in Alzheimer's disease

unexpectedly reverses paralysis and inflammation in several distinct animal

models of a different disorder -- multiple sclerosis, researchers have

found.

A new study raises concern about chronic exposure of workers in industry to

a food flavoring ingredient used to produce the distinctive buttery flavor

and aroma of microwave popcorn, margarines, snack foods, candy, baked

goods, pet foods and other products. It found evidence that the ingredient,

diacetyl, intensifies the damaging effects of an abnormal brain protein

linked to Alzheimer's disease.
