alzheimer disease (ad) is a neurodegenerative disorder and the most common form of dementia. increasing evidence suggests that alzheimer's disease pathogenesis is not restricted to the neuronal compartment, but includes strong interactions with immunological mechanisms in the brain. in vitro and animal studies have linked neuroinflammation to alzheimer's disease (ad) pathology. studie...

Objective(s): Artemisia absinthium is an aromatic, perennial small shrub that shows multiple medical benefits, including anticancerous, neuroprotective, antifungal, hepatoprotective, antidepressant and antioxidant properties. One of the effective approaches to treat Alzheimer’s disease is targeting amyloid aggregation by antiamyloid drugs. In the current research study, an excellent grouping of...

In multiple criteria decision aid, preference disaggregation techniques are used to facilitate the construction of decision models, through regression-based approaches that enable the elicitation of preferential information from a representative set of decision examples provided by a decision-maker. The robustness of such approaches and their results is an important feature for their successful...

Fear of increasing prices and concern about climate change are motivating residential power conservation efforts. We investigate the effectiveness of several unsupervised disaggregation methods on low frequency power measurements collected in real homes. Specifically, we consider variants of the factorial hidden Markov model. Our results indicate that a conditional factorial hidden semi-Markov ...

Transgenic mice over-expressing mutant human amyloid precursor protein (PDAPP mouse) develop several Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-like lesions including an age-related accumulation of amyloid-?-containing neuritic plaques. Although aged, heterozygous PDAPP mice also exhibit synaptic and glial cell changes, that is characteristic of AD pathology, no evidence of neurodegeneration has been observed. T...

INTRODUCTION Between 1993 and 2000 four acetylcholinesterase inhibitors were marketed as a symptomatic treatment for Alzheimer's disease (AD), as well as memantine in 2003. Current research is focused on finding drugs that favorably modify the course of the disease. However, their entrance into the market does not seem to be imminent. RESEARCH DEVELOPMENT The aim of AD research is to find sub...

the purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in the serum concentrations of haptoglobin (hp), serum amyloid a (saa) and igg, iga in calves with diarrhea caused by rotavirus, coronavirus, escherichia coli f5 and eimeria species. the experiment was carried out on 40 diarrhoeic and 10 non-diarrhoeic calves (group c). a total of 13 calves were infected with rotavirus or coronavirus (group ...

Platelet aggregation beta amyloid main causes inflammation of neurons in Alzheimer’s disease. In fact, creating this inflammation due to inappropriate actions in blood brain barrier (BBB) and astrocyte and microglia during the last century that studies conducted in this case nothing has been found. The only thing that can be done to prevent and reduce pro-inflammatory factors such as cyto...
