Reversibility of Aβ oligomer neurotoxicity: Insights into the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease
Intrinsic human multidrug transporters as helpers against Alzheimer’s Disease
The cause(s) of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is still unknown, so is a proper method for diagnosis. AD is a widely occurring form of neurodegeneration that is considered to affect 47 million people worldwide, according to the World
Determination of regions involved in amyloid fibril formation for Aβ(1-40) peptide
Conformal invariants for landmark curve based brain morphometry analysis
Adolescent exposure of MDMA potentiates one of the hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease
3,4 Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) is an amphetamine derivative widely consumed by adolescents, which has been described that produces oxidative stress in neurons such as dopaminergic neurons. Moreover, many patients with Alzheimer’s disease develop extrapyramidal symptoms due to alterations
Determination of the size of folding nuclei of fibrils formed from Aβ(1-40) peptide
Amyloid specific antibodies are not necessary to detect amyloid plaques in Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an age-related neurological disorder which impairs learning, memory, and cognition. Gradual accumulation of amyloid beta protein (Aβ) is one of the hallmark pathologies of this disease. Early detection of the presence of Aβ

Early-onset Alzheimer disease: what are we missing?
Memory is the first brain function that starts to fade away when Alzheimer disease (AD) pathology affects the brain of a patient. Decline of additional cognitive functions, shortly follows. This progressive and irreversible disease, intrudes the life
Mutations in the SORL1 gene affect risk of early-onset Alzheimer’s disease
Regional Alzheimer’s disease research
According to World Alzheimer Report 2015, over 46 million people live with dementia worldwide. The incidence of dementia is estimated over 9.9 million every year, and nearly half of new dementia cases (4.9 million) occurred in Asia.
One of the mechanisms of amyloid fibrils formation based on the sizes of folding nuclei of Aβ40 and Aβ42
Differential courses of delay discounting in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer´s disease
People prefer to receive a reward rather sooner than later, which means that people put a smaller value on a reward they have to wait for (= delay discounting, DD). But when people get to choose between
