Neuroprotective Effects and Mechanisms of Tea Bioactive Components in Neurodegenerative Diseases.
As the population ages, neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) impose a heavy burden on society and families. The pathogeneses of PD and AD are complex. There are no radical cures for the diseases, and existing therapeutic agents for PD and AD have diverse side effects. Tea contains many bioactive components such as polyphenols, theanine, caffei...
متن کاملNeuroprotective mechanisms of statins in neurodegenerative diseases
Statins can induce neuroprotective effects by various mechanisms, such as by lowering cholesterol levels; decreasing β-amyloid production, serum apolipoprotein E (APOE) levels, and anti-inflammatory responses; modifying cognition-related receptors, and augmenting endothelial nitric oxide synthase. The use of statins has been related to many neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer’s dise...
متن کاملNeuroprotective effects of the green tea components theanine and catechins.
The neuroprotective effects of theanine and catechins contained in green tea are discussed. Although the death of cultured rat cortical neurons was induced by the application of glutamic acid, this neuronal death was suppressed with exposure to theanine. The death of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons caused by transient forebrain ischemia in the gerbil was inhibited with the ventricular preadmi...
متن کاملP152: Neurotoxicants and Mechanisms Neurodegenerative in Acrylamide
Many chemicals with broad industrial, pharmaceutical and agricultural application produce a neurotoxic syndrome in humans and experimental animals involving weight loss, skeletal muscle weakness and ataxia. Neurotoxicity is defined as a structural change or a functional alteration of the nervous system resulting from exposure to a chemical, biological or physical agent. Neurotoxicity including ...
متن کاملNeurodegenerative Diseases: Mechanisms and Therapies
Neurodegenerative diseases are amongst the most costly and devastating diseases, both to patients as well as to their families. This year will mark the 100th anniversary of the first case description of what we now call Alzheimer’s disease, the most common neurodegenerative disease. This special time provides a unique opportunity for us to reflect on howmuch we have learned and yet to also appr...
