- You are the clinician in-charge of a drug development team targeting neurodegeneration. You are asked to give a presentation on your proposed research strategy. What area(s) of the brain would you recommend as the best target(s) for a neurogenic drug in adults Select one: a. Thalamus b. Hypothalamus c. Prefrontal cortex d. Hippocampus e. corpus callosumDiscuss what are the potential benefits of stem cell research for Alzheimer's patients and their families.Alzheimer's Disease Alzheimer's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects almost 50 million people worldwide. The cause of Alzheimer's disease is still not well understood. It is thought to be a combination of genetics, lifestyle, and environmental causes. It is also difficult to diagnose Alzheimer's disease during the initial stages of the disease as symptoms can be mistaken for normal ageing. Currently, there is no cure for the disease. Medication can help manage the symptoms but degeneration of brain tissue cannot be stopped or reversed. Currently, the medication that manages the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease is a type of cholinesterase inhibitor. In other words, the medication inhibits the function of cholinesterase and helps in brain functioning and memory. What is the function of cholinesterase in the synapse? How does a cholinesterase inhibitor work in a synapse? Explain how cholinesterase inhibitors are able to increase brain functioning and…
- Hello! What are the two drugs that have potential for treating Alzheimer’s diseases? And compare them to Aducanumab ( how they are better/more effective). Thank you!Please help with this homework assignment See image/PDF https://static.nsta.org/case_study_docs/case_studies/gwas_studies.pdf Part 3 What other factors will alter Josie’s risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease? Based on Josie’s genotype, what dose of warfarin would be best for her (high, low, or intermediate dose)? One of Josie’s favorite vegetables is asparagus. She noticed that she could detect a strong sulfur smell in her urine after eating asparagus. Explain why she is able to do this after looking at her data.The development of Alzheimer's disease is not a normal part of aging, although a person’s risk of developing the condition increases after age 65. Approximately half of people over age 85 have Alzheimer's disease. In cases of rare genetic changes that lead to Alzheimer's disease, symptoms present themselves in the 40s or 50s. For this essay considering the importance of education and the prevention of Alzheimer's Disease Question With reasons, pointing at the target audience with their age range, sex, ethnicity, describe what information and the method of delivery you would use basing on their importance and why?
- What issue would the alzheimer's caregiver support act bill will help resolve in health careAlzheimer's disease is a progressive neurological degenerative disorder that affects almost 50 million people worldwide. The cause of Alzheimer's disease is still not well understood. It is thought to be a combination of genetics, lifestyle, and environmental causes. It is also difficult to diagnose Alzheimer's disease during the initial stages of the disease as symptoms can be mistaken for normal aging. Currently, there is no cure for the disease. Medication can help manage the symptoms but degeneration of brain tissue cannot be stopped or reversed. One medication used to manage the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease is a cholinesterase inhibitor. The medication helps to improve brain functioning and memory. What is the function of cholinesterase in the synapse? How does a cholinesterase inhibitor work in a synapse? Explain the function of cholinesterase inhibitor in increasing brain functioning and memoryIf a test were available that could tell you whether you were likely to develop a disorder such as schizophrenia later in life, would you take the test? Why or why not? Rachel asked to see a genetic counselor because she was concerned about developing schizophrenia. Her mother and maternal grandmother both had schizophrenia and were institutionalized for most of their adult lives. Rachels three maternal aunts are all in their 60s and have not shown any signs of this disease. Rachels father is alive and healthy, and his family history does not suggest any behavioral or genetic conditions. The genetic counselor discussed the multifactorial nature of schizophrenia and explained that many candidate genes have been identified that may be mutated in individuals with the condition. However, a genetic test is not available for presymptomatic testing. The counselor explained that based on Rachels family history and her relatedness to individuals who have schizophrenia, her risk of developing it is approximately 13%. If an altered gene is in the family and her mother carries the gene, Rachel has a 50% chance of inheriting it.
