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.

Tricyclodecan-9-yl-Xanthogenate (D609): Mechanism of Action and Pharmacological Applications

TL;DR: A comprehensive mechanistic insight is provided into D609, including its chemistry, mechanism of action, and regulation of various pharmacological activities, which demonstrates promising results in reducing atherosclerotic plaque formation, post-stroke cerebral infarction, and cancer progression.

Serbest rad‹kaller ve ant‹oks‹dan gidalarla ‹nh‹b‹syonu free radicals and their inhibitions with antioxidant foods

TL;DR: The antioxidants from food sources or supplements appear to be promising for successful aging by improving im- mune function, and reducing the risk of several chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Consequences of endogenous and virally-induced hyperphosphorylated tau on behavior and cognition in a rat model of Alzheimer’s disease

TL;DR: In this paper, the locus coeruleus (LC) is one of the earliest brain regions to accumulate hyperphosphorylated tau, but a lack of animal models that recapitulate this pathology has hampered our ability to understand its contributions to the pathophysiology of Alzheimer9s disease (AD).

Amino acid-functionalized chitosan beads for in vitro copper ions uptake in the presence of histidine

TL;DR: In this paper, the in vitro ability of chitosan-based beads to uptake copper ions in the presence of histidine residues was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.

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.
