p53 , resveratrol , pancreatic cancer and apoptosis

Intrigued by pancreatic cancer, infection and environmental toxins, I stumble into this topic from Wiki. One of my clients died of stomach , esophagal and pancreatic cancer. Previous to that , he had shingles and other infections.  Her immune system became weaker during the last 5 years before his death.  He disregarded stomach pains andContinue reading “p53 , resveratrol , pancreatic cancer and apoptosis”

Novel Type of Cell Death in Huntington’s Disease May Lead to Effective New Therapies

Summary: Researchers have identified a novel type of cell death associated with Huntington’s disease. Source: Tokyo Medical and Dental University. Researchers centered at Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) identify novel type of cell death in Huntington’s disease that may uncover new treatments. In Huntington’s disease (HD), the huntingtin gene is mutated, causing progressive neuronalContinue reading “Novel Type of Cell Death in Huntington’s Disease May Lead to Effective New Therapies”

Causal Link Between Alzheimer’s Disease and Telomere Shortening

In a newly published study, researchers at Karolinska Institutet show that the shortening of the telomeres – the caps at each end of the chromosomes in our cells – can be linked statistically to the active mechanism responsible for Alzheimer’s disease. However, the effect is small and telomere length cannot yet be used to assessContinue reading “Causal Link Between Alzheimer’s Disease and Telomere Shortening”

What is your molecular age? P16 protein can ID your molecular age

Aging biomarket test –  coming soon Researchers report the development of a new blood test that they say may show your “molecular age,” as opposed to your chronological age. That test measures levels of a protein called p16. A new study shows that p16 levels rise as people age, that smokers have higher levels ofContinue reading “What is your molecular age?

Stronger immune system, less Alzheimer’s symptoms

IL-33 is effective in reversing Alzheimer-like symptoms in APP/PS1 mice (from WIKI) Interleukin 33 (IL33) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IL33 gene.[1] Interleukin 33 is a member of the IL-1 family that potently drives production of T helper-2 (Th2)-associated cytokines (e.g., IL-4). IL33 is a ligand for IL33R (IL1RL1), anContinue reading “Stronger immune system, less Alzheimer’s symptoms”

Eating seafood and Dementia/Alzheimer’s

 APOE ε4 (Alzheimer’s gene) and the associations of seafood and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids with cognitive decline In the article “APOE ε4 and the associations of seafood and long-chain omega-3 fatty acids with cognitive decline,” van de Rest and colleagues examined the connection between the amount of seafood eaten per week and cognitive decline over approximatelyContinue reading “Eating seafood and Dementia/Alzheimer’s”

Damage to Blood–brain barrier (BBB) pathways leading to Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia

Blood–brain barrier (BBB) pathways to neurodegeneration in dementia and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) A: In the normal capillary, there is an intact BBB composed of tightly joined endothelial cells and supported by mural pericytes, as shown in this simplified schematic. The BBB normally selectively regulates the passage of molecules from blood to brain and vice versa,Continue reading “Damage to Blood–brain barrier (BBB) pathways leading to Alzheimer’s disease and Dementia”

Anti-aging blend of thirty vitamins and minerals

A dietary supplement containing a blend of thirty vitamins and minerals—all natural ingredients widely available in health food stores—has shown remarkable anti-aging properties that can prevent and even reverse massive brain cell loss, according to new research from McMaster University. It’s a mixture scientists believe could someday slow the progress of catastrophic neurological diseases suchContinue reading “Anti-aging blend of thirty vitamins and minerals”

Caring for clients with anxiety disorders, the brain in the gut

Most geriatric and family practice doctors prescribe anti-anxiety and anti-depressent meds from Gabapentin to other narcotics with serious side effects as exhibit more Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s disease. One client of mine told her doctor that she does not need anti-depressant med and only need to sleep more or a low dose of a sleeping aidContinue reading “Caring for clients with anxiety disorders, the brain in the gut”

When do you need a caregiver for your homebound senior

We need a companion, home helper or caregiver for our 70plus mom and dad who live alone to avoid emergencies, to allow us to function and take care of our bodies too in the same way we care for our parents, to give more quality time to our aging parents and to provide the necessaryContinue reading “When do you need a caregiver for your homebound senior”

Oldest Men and Women in the world

Supercentenarian cases These notable living supercentenarian cases, in descending order of claimed age, with full birth and review dates, have been updated within the past two years, but have no publicly available early-life records to support them. The names and cases of people whose lifespan is documented by at least one publicly available, standardized early-lifeContinue reading “Oldest Men and Women in the world”

Parkinson’s Disease prevention diet and nutrition needs

Nutritional Factors Some supplements with reported benefits in Parkinson’s disease are acetyl-L-carnitine, octacosanol and evening primrose oil. Carnitine helps to increase energy production by channeling fatty acids into cells, it is especially brain active as acetyl-L-carnitine and helps to improve memory and possibly other brain functions. Octacosanol is a long-chain lipid concentrated from wheat-germ oil.Continue reading “Parkinson’s Disease prevention diet and nutrition needs”

LEAN DIETS, LONG LIFE, AND THE MITOCHONDRIA

Parkinson’s disease and Mitochondria as the oxygen-consuming power plants of human cells Mitochondrial maintenance is essential for cellular and organismal function. Maintenance includes reactive oxygen species (ROS) regulation, DNA repair, fusion–fission, and mitophagy. Loss of function of these pathways leads to disease. Mitochondria are the oxygen-consuming power plants of cells. They provide a critical milieuContinue reading “LEAN DIETS, LONG LIFE, AND THE MITOCHONDRIA”
