Cholinesterase Inhibitors in Alzheimer's Disease

TL;DR: Data indicate that aminoacridines, as a class of compounds, have a statistically significant effect to diminish, slightly, some of the cognitive symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease, and encourage the use of drugs that will reverse multiple neurotransmitter deficits.

Bioactive compounds and bioactivities of ginger (zingiber officinale roscoe)

TL;DR: It is hoped that this updated review paper will attract more attention to ginger and its further applications, including its potential to be developed into functional foods or nutraceuticals for the prevention and management of chronic diseases.

Oxidative stress and diabetic retinopathy: Molecular mechanisms, pathogenetic role and therapeutic implications.

TL;DR: The abnormalities correlated with oxidative stress provide multiple potential therapeutic targets to develop safe and effective treatments for diabetic retinopathy and are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iron homeostasis and iron-regulated ROS in cell death, senescence and human diseases

TL;DR: Understanding the spatiotemporal availability of iron and the role of iron in generating ROS will provide clues for the suppression of ROS and cytotoxic redox-active iron and enable us to find novel therapeutic targets for various diseases.

Towards a unifying, systems biology understanding of large-scale cellular death and destruction caused by poorly liganded iron: Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, Alzheimer’s, prions, bactericides, chemical toxicology and others as examples

TL;DR: This work highlights specifically the role of iron metabolism, and the detailed speciation of iron, in chemical and other toxicology, and has significant implications for the use of iron chelating substances as nutritional or therapeutic agents in inhibiting both the progression of these mainly degenerative diseases and the sequelae of both chronic and acute toxin exposure.

Mechanisms of Neuroprotection by Quercetin: Counteracting Oxidative Stress and More

TL;DR: Several studies in vitro, in experimental animals and in humans, have provided supportive evidence for neuroprotective effects of quercetin, either against neurotoxic chemicals or in various models of neuronal injury and neurodegenerative diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inverse association between cancer and Alzheimer's disease: results from the Framingham Heart Study

TL;DR: Cancer survivors had a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease than those without cancer, and patients with Alzheimer's disease had a higher risk of incident cancer, suggesting an inverse association between cancer and neurodegeneration.
