abstract alzheimer’s disease (ad) is the most common cause of dementia in elderly people. the prevalence of alzheimer diseases is increasing in the world due to population aging. metabolic disease such as diabetes and obesity play important role in alzheimer disease. hyperglycemia can play important role in brain damage. it causes cognitive impairments, functional and structural alterations in ...

Of 35 stool specimens isolated and examined in 293 cells, 15 isolates contained adenovirus species 40 (Ad40), and 4 of these 15 isolates also contained a nonfastidious adenovirus species (Ad1 in two cases, Ad18 or Ad31) which was selected over Ad40 during serial passage in the 293 cells. The selection of Ad1 over Ad40 was examined in detail. Restriction analysis of intracellular DNA and the rel...

alzheimer disease is one form of dementia in old age. alzheimer disease, the incurable disease, which is usually in the seventh decade of human life, shows its symptoms. the disease may be present for years without clinical symptoms. the current study identified the genes with altered expression in patients with alzheimer disease. the important sequence of each gene in alzheimer disease was fou...

background: alzheimer’s disease (ad) is the most common type of dementia. demonstrating the modifiable risk factors of ad can help to plan for prevention of this disease. the aim of the current review was to characterize modifiable cardiovascular risk factors of ad using existing data and determine their contribution in ad development in iran and the world. methods: the systematic search was do...

alzheimer is age-related, progressive brain degeneration disease. it destroys memory slowly. the number of people living with ad is increasing as fast as the count of aged population and extension of bad nutrition habits. the main cause of ad is not clearly known, but prior studies noted the importance of inflammation in tau hyperphosphorylation and failure of microglia to clear ab peptide accu...

conclusions according to iranian traditional medicine, the brain dystemperement is considered the main causes of alzheimer disease. by correcting the brain dystemperement, alzheimer can be well managed. this study helps to suggest a better strategy for preventing and treating alzheimer in the future. results findings showed that alzheimer disease has the most overlap with nesyan (fisad-e-zekr, ...

reactive oxygen species (ros) are produced in many normal and abnormal processes in humans, including atheroma, asthma, joint diseases, cancer, and aging. basal levels of ros production  in  cells  could  be  related  to  several  physiological functions  including  cell proliferation, apoptosis and homeostasis. however, excessive ros production above basal levels would impair and oxidize dna, ...

    Background: Nowadays, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is considered as Type 3 diabetes in which insulin resistance is the common cause of both diseases. Disruption of insulin signaling cascade and insulin resistance can induce AD; and central insulin resistance causes systemic alterations in serum insulin, FBS levels, and lipid profile. Studies have shown that probiotics (Lact...

the etiopathogenesis of dementia in alzheimer's disease (ad) is still unclear. however, long-term oxidative stress is believed to be one of the major contributing factors in progression of neuronal degeneration and decline of cognitive function in ad. in order to assess the presence of oxidative stress in ad, we examined the enzymatic activities of the erythrocyte cu-zn superoxide dismutase (cu...
