Alzheimer: 100 Years and Beyond

Few medical or scientific addresses have so unmistakeably made history as the presentation delivered by Alois Alzheimer on November 4, 1906 in Tübingen. The celebratory event "Alzheimer 100 Years and Beyond" was organized through the Alzheimer community in Germany and worldwide, in collaboration with the Fondation Ipsen. This volume, a collection of articles by the invited speakers and of a few other prominent researchers, is published as a record of those events.

Proteopathic Seeds and Neurodegenerative Diseases

The misfolding and aggregation of specific proteins is an early and obligatory event in many of the age-related neurodegenerative diseases of humans. The initial cause of this pathogenic cascade and the means whereby disease spreads through the nervous system, remain uncertain. A recent surge of research, first instigated by pathologic similarities between prion disease and Alzheimer’s disease, increasingly implicates the conversion of disease-specific proteins into an aggregate-prone b-sheet-rich state as the prime mover of the neurodegenerative process. This prion-like corruptive protein templating or seeding now characterizes such clinically and etiologically diverse neurological disord...

Brain Repair

Brain Repair, addresses all relevant issues underlying the mechanisms of brain damage, brain plasticity and post-traumatic reorganisation after CNS lesions. This book is divided the three major sections that follow; cellular and molecular basis of brain repair, plasticity and reorganisation of neural networks, and experimental therapy strategies. Brain Repair is written by high profile, international experts who describe in detail the newest results from basic research and highlight new model systems, techniques and therapy approaches. Based on a careful analysis of the cellular and molecular reaction patterns of the CNS to lesions, the contributions cover possibilities for endogenous reorganisation and repair as well as exciting new therapies emerging from basic research, some of which have already been introduced into the clinics. Thus, this book is unique in bridging the gap between basic and clinical research. It will be a valuable tool for all students, researchers and clinicians interested in understanding the brain's capacity to cope with lesions and interested in learning about emerging new therapy concepts.

Exploring the Mind of God : How Technology Guided by Spirituality Can Lead to Happiness

About the Book: This book is an attempt to show how technology guided by spirituality can lead to happiness, and in the process, it may lead to the understanding of the Universal Consciousness or the Mind of God. The book is divided into three sections. The first section deals with how to make the mind powerful to gain inner peace. A happy and contented mind then sees the world in a different light. The second section dwells on how to improve the environment through technology, so it becomes liveable and sustainable. And the last section is about exploring space — the last frontier which can help in joining the individual with universal consciousness and understanding the mind of God. The ...

The Power of Prions

The remarkable family of proteins that can make us very ill—but can also be linked to long-term memory, immunity, and the origin of life Over the last decade, scientists have discovered the importance and widespread presence in the body of a remarkable family of proteins known as prion proteins. Research links various types of prion proteins to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s—and this has fueled the search for new drugs that could halt the progression of these terrible disorders. Other discoveries have revealed the essential roles prion proteins play in memory and immunity, and—in an extraordinary finding—the part they may have played in the beginni...

Exploring the Mind of God

This book is an attempt to show how technology guided by spirituality can lead to happiness and in the process may lead to understanding Universal Consciousness or the Mind of God. Dr. Anil K. Rajvanshi had been writing on these issues for the last 15-20 years. He has published articles on this subject in Times of India (Speaking Tree), Huffington Post, Thrive Global and in many news lines as syndicated articles. He has now put together most of these articles in this book. The book is divided into three sections. The first section is on how to make the mind powerful so that inner peace results. A happy and contented mind then sees the world accordingly. The second section is on how to improv...

With the recent discovery that amyloid beta protein, the cause of plaques in Alzheimer's disease, is an antimicrobial peptide produced in response to infection, many researchers are focusing on the role infection plays in the development of Alzheimer's disease. Brain studies have also identified a number of different viruses, bacteria, fungi, and protozoa in the postmortem brain specimens of Alzheimer's patients. Infection (particularly chronic, latent and persistent infections) causes an immune response that leads to inflammation and brain cell degeneration, which are characteristic features of Alzheimer's disease. Sources of infection in Alzheimer's disease vary from childhood infections t...

Exploring Molecular Targets to Treat Neurodegenerative Disorders

This book delves into the delicate realm of neurodegenerative illnesses, navigating the vast landscape of molecular targets with care and purpose. Researchers are studying the complex pathways involved in diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and Huntington’s in order to identify specific molecules that could be targeted for therapy. The present work explores potential methods of intervention by carefully analysing neural circuits, protein misfolding, and genetic predispositions, unravelling the complexities of the human mind by focusing on individual molecular targets. As new findings emerge, reducing the severe consequences of neurodegenerative illnesses becomes increasingly possible, providing optimism for millions of people throughout the world.
