MicroRNA-668-3p regulates oxidative stress and cell damage induced by Aβ1-42 by targeting the OXR1/p53-p21 axis

TL;DR: The luciferase analysis results revealed that miR-668-3p may play a role in AD development by targeting OXR1 and promoting intracellular oxidative stress by activating p53-p21 signaling and regulating cell damage and oxidative stress induced by Aβ1-42.

The Amyloid Hypothesis of Alzheimer's Disease: Progress and Problems on the Road to Therapeutics

TL;DR: It has been more than 10 years since it was first proposed that the neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease (AD) may be caused by deposition of amyloid β-peptide in plaques in brain tissue and the rest of the disease process is proposed to result from an imbalance between Aβ production and Aβ clearance.

The effect of vitamin E and beta carotene on the incidence of lung cancer and other cancers in male smokers

TL;DR: No reduction in the incidence of lung cancer among male smokers is found after five to eight years of dietary supplementation with alpha-tocopherol or beta carotene, and this trial raises the possibility that these supplements may actually have harmful as well as beneficial effects.
