Nutrition, brain aging, and neurodegeneration.
The onset of age-related neurodegenerative diseases superimposed on a declining nervous system could enhance the motor and cognitive behavioral deficits that normally occur in senescence. It is likely that, in cases of severe deficits in memory or motor function, hospitalization and/or custodial care would be a likely outcome. This means that unless some way is found to reduce these age-related...
متن کاملBrain metabolism in health, aging, and neurodegeneration.
Brain cells normally respond adaptively to bioenergetic challenges resulting from ongoing activity in neuronal circuits, and from environmental energetic stressors such as food deprivation and physical exertion. At the cellular level, such adaptive responses include the "strengthening" of existing synapses, the formation of new synapses, and the production of new neurons from stem cells. At the...
متن کاملA review on nutrition and skin aging
Background: Skin reflects the general health status and is not an exception in the process of aging. Intervention studies indicate that it is possible to delay skin aging and improve skin conditions through diet-based anti-aging strategies. The purpose of the current work was to review recent existing literature regarding the role of nutrition, for and against skin aging processes.Method: This ...
متن کاملRegion- and Cell-specific Aneuploidy in Brain Aging and Neurodegeneration
Variations in genomic DNA content, or aneuploidy, are a well-recognized feature of normal human brain development. Whether changes in the levels of aneuploidy are a factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is less clear, as the data reported to date vary substantially in the levels of aneuploidy detected (0.7-11.5%), possibly due to methodological limitations, but also influenced by individual, regio...
متن کاملFood, Nutrition, and Neurodegeneration
Between 1980 and roughly 1996, about 750,000 cattle infected with BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) were slaughtered for human consumption in Great Britain, and it is now clear that BSE, also known as “mad cow disease” is not merely a UK phenomenon, nor is it merely an economic nuisance. The sudden and explosive increase of BSE in recent Europe may have been spread among cattle by the feed...
