Download or read book Proteopathic Seeds and Neurodegenerative Diseases written by Mathias Jucker and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-27 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 disorders as Alzheimer ́s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and frontotemporal lobar degeneration. Understanding the misfolding, aggregation, trafficking and pathogenicity of the affected proteins could therefore reveal universal pathomechanistic principles for some of the most devastating and intractable human brain disorders. It is time to accept that the prion concept is no longer confined to prionoses but is a promising concept for the understanding and treatment of a remarkable variety of diseases that afflict primarily our aging society. ​

Download or read book An Orphan s Legacy written by Eric Christensen and published by Eric Christensen. This book was released on 2019-08-23 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three-year-old Hans Peter Christensen, later to become known as Peter Christian Christensen, began his arduous trip with his parents across the ocean from Denmark to America in 1853. His parents never finished the journey, his mother dying on board the ship outside of New Orleans and his father dying just as they reached Saint Louis. He crossed the plains as a young orphan to settle in Sanpete County, Utah. His descendants are mostly scattered throughout the western states, and this book relates their life stories.

Download or read book Methods in Neuropsychology written by M. A. Jeeves and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Efforts to relate neuroscience and anatomy with ethology and psychology have involved an ever widening group of scientists from diverse backgrounds and it has become increasingly evident that interaction is harder to arrange. This book is offered as a first attempt to address some of these interdisciplinary problems. First, it aims to provide a critical evaluation of some of the principal methods used by neuropsychologists in research and assessment. Second, it provides short evaluations of the methods which they use to shed further light on brain dysfunction. In this way it is hoped that it offers a further insight into this multidisciplinary field.

Download or read book Dementia and Motor Neuron Disease written by Michael Strong and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-07-27 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dementia and Motor Neuron Disease is a single authoritative reference on the current understanding of frontotemporal dementia in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This comprehensive work is ideal for clinical and research groups focusing on dementia or ALS, as well as those working in the fields of neuroimaging and neuropsychology. Key topics covered include: • Frontotemporal dementia, including history, anatomy and impairment • Clinical phenomenology and treatment • Neuropathological, cognitive dysfunction and altered cognition spectrums • Neuroimaging • Molecular and cellular neuropathology • Genetics • Neurochemistry With contributions from international opinion leaders in dementia and motor neuron disease, this is a one-of-a-kind reference for established clinicians and researchers, as well as graduate students studying neurodegeneration.
