Although there are currently several drugs marketed its treatment, none capable slowing down or stopping the progression AD. The role blood-brain barrier (BBB) plays key in design successful treatment this disease. Nanosized particles have been proposed as suit...

abstract introduction: it is demonstrated that the degree of clinical improvement in parkinson's disease (pd) achieved by deep brain stimulation (dbs) is largely dependent on the accuracy of lead placement. in addition, individual variability in the situation of subthalamic nucleus (stn) is responsible for spatial inter-individual fluctuations of the real patient's target. objective: our study ...

The excessive electrical activity of neurons is reported in many diseases including: Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and Epilepsy. Electrical overactivity in hippocampus accelerates the depletion of neural stem cell (NSC) and impairs the neurogenesis in hippocampus. It is believed that neurogenesis in hippocampus improves the cognitive functions. In this experiment, we use kindled mod...

Neurodegenerative diseases contain Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD), are characterized by neuronal death and neuronal degeneration in specific regions of the central nervous system (CNS). Microglia are the basic immune brain cells and play a role in homeostasis after inflammation challenge. Microglia involves in Neurodegenerative disease...

Neuroinflammation is inflammation of the nervous tissue. It be initiated in response to infection, toxic metabolites, auto immunity, traumatic brain injury and variety of causes. Exercise is a promising mechanism of prevention and treatment for disease characterized by neuroinflammation. The benefits of exercise and physical activity (PA) are well known and have effects on function of the centr...
