TLDR
This review discusses free radical-mediated damage to the biochemical components involved in the pathology and clinical symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and explains how amyloid beta-protein, microtubule-associated protein tau, presenilins, apolipoprotein E, mitochondria and proteases play a role in increasing oxidative stress in AD.

Importance and management of micronutrient deficiencies in patients with Alzheimer's disease

TL;DR: A literature review on the major nutrients that are related to AD, including selenium, vitamins C and E, transition metals, vitamin D, B-complex vitamins, and omega-3 fatty acids is performed.

Decreasing oxidative stress and neuroinflammation with a multifunctional peptide rescues memory deficits in mice with Alzheimer disease

TL;DR: It is found that this peptide significantly improved spatial memory and reduced the amyloid plaque burden and soluble and insoluble Aβ levels and this multifunctional peptide has therapeutic potential for an Aβ-targeted treatment of AD.

Magnolol Protects Against Oxidative Stress-Mediated Neural Cell Damage by Modulating Mitochondrial Dysfunction and PI3K/Akt Signaling

TL;DR: It is found that magnolol pretreatment significantly attenuated acrolein-induced oxidative stress through inhibiting reactive oxygen species accumulation caused by intracellular glutathione depletion and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase activation and prolongs SH-SY5Y cell survival through regulating JNK/mitochondria/caspase, PI3k/MEK/ERK, and PI3K/Akt/FoxO1 signaling pathways.

Punica granatum protects against oxidative stress in PC12 cells and oxidative stress-induced Alzheimer's symptoms in mice.

TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that the ethanol extract of P. granatum mitigated H₂O⁂-induced oxidative stress in PC12 cells, and inhibited neuronal cell death caused by Aβ-induced antioxidant stress and A β-induced learning and memory deficiency.

Covalent cross-linking of glutathione and carnosine to proteins by 4-oxo-2-nonenal.

TL;DR: It is shown that ONE becomes more protein-reactive in the presence of GSH, whereas protein modification by 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal is inhibited by GSH.

Aging: A Theory Based on Free Radical and Radiation Chemistry

TL;DR: It seems possible that one factor in aging may be related to deleterious side attacks of free radicals (which are normally produced in the course of cellular metabolism) on cell constituents.

The precursor of Alzheimer's disease amyloid A4 protein resembles a cell-surface receptor

TL;DR: An apparently full-length complementary DNA clone coding for the A4 polypeptide is isolated and sequenced and suggests that the cerebral amyloid deposited in Alzheimer's disease and aged Down's syndrome is caused by aberrant catabolism of a cell-surface receptor.

Amyloid plaque core protein in Alzheimer disease and Down syndrome

TL;DR: The shared 4-kDa subunit indicates a common origin for the amyloids of the plaque core and of the congophilic angiopathy of Alzheimer disease and Down syndrome.
