Antioxidants, oxidative stress, and degenerative neurological disorders.
Recently, clinical trials of several neurodegenerative diseases have increasingly targeted the evaluation of the effectiveness of various antioxidants. The results so far are encouraging but variable and thus confusing. Rationale for the possible clinical effectiveness of antioxidants in several degenerative conditions has arisen out of the many years of basic science generally showing that rea...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid arginine vasopressin in degenerative disorders and other neurological diseases.
Arginine vasopressin (AVP) was determined in plasma and lumbar CSF from 46 patients with Parkinson's disease, dementia, cerebrovascular disease, multiple sclerosis and other, mostly peripheral neurological disorders. The mean plasma concentration of AVP was 1.62 microU/ml, the CSF concentration 1.14 microU/ml and the gradient CSF/plasma 0.72. There was a good correlation between the plasma and ...
متن کاملEpilepsy and Other Neurological Disorders in Coeliac Disease
Coeliac disease is a not uncommon disorder with a prevalence of approximately 1 in 200. Many correlations exist between the central and peripheral nervous systems and the small bowel. However, the ‘idiopathogenetic’ causes which link these systems remain mostly unclear. This book has been produced following a meeting in San Marino, Italy concerning epilepsy and other neurological disorders in c...
متن کاملLeukocyte glutamate dehydrogenase activity in patients with degenerative neurological disorders.
Leukocyte glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) activity was measured in 39 normal subjects, 32 neurological controls, 66 patients with progressive ataxic disorders, 32 with multiple system atrophy, 40 with Parkinson's disease, eight with Steele-Richardson-Olszewski syndrome, eight with juvenile Parkinsonism and four with the dystonia-Parkinsonism syndrome. GDH activity was reproducible to within 10% i...
متن کاملEFhd2, a Protein Linked to Alzheimer's Disease and Other Neurological Disorders
EFhd2 is a conserved calcium binding protein linked to different neurological disorders and types of cancer. Although, EFhd2 is more abundant in neurons, it is also found in other cell types. The physiological function of this novel protein is still unclear, but it has been shown in vitro to play a role in calcium signaling, apoptosis, actin cytoskeleton, and regulation of synapse formation. Re...
