Non cognitive symptoms are almost always present in dementia with important consequences for patients and caregivers quality of life. Behavioural and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia (BPSD) are heterogeneous and varied in relation to the stage of the demetia and to the aetiology. Treatment of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia represent an important challenge, and non pharmacological and pharmacological approach needs. Antidepressant and neuroleptics are the most frequently used drugs in the treatment of BPSD, even if the number of well designed controlled studies are limited. A variety of different forms of environmental and rehabilitative interventions showed efficacy on BPSD.
非认知症状几乎总是存在于痴呆症患者和照顾者的生活质量的重要后果。痴呆症(BPSD)的行为和心理症状是异质性的,与痴呆症的阶段和病因有关。治疗痴呆的行为和心理症状是一个重要的挑战,并且需要非药物和药物方法。抗抑郁药和神经抑制剂是治疗BPSD最常用的药物,即使精心设计的对照研究数量有限。多种不同形式的环境和康复干预对BPSD有疗效。

Here we summarise current knowledge about biological markers available for early Alzheimer Disease detection. In fact delineating disease process from “normal ageing” may be difficult in the very early stages; in later stages of the disease distinguishing Dementia of Alzheimer Type from a number of neurodegenerative diseases associated with dementia may also be troublesome.
在这里,我们总结了目前关于早期阿尔茨海默病检测的生物标志物的知识。事实上,在早期阶段,从“正常衰老”中描述疾病过程可能是困难的;在阿尔茨海默病的晚期,将阿尔茨海默型痴呆症与许多与痴呆症相关的神经退行性疾病区分开来可能也很麻烦。

Age has a powerful effect on enhanced susceptibility to cardiovascular diseases, stroke, cognitive impairment and neurodegenerative diseases and a condition of increased oxidative stress status seems to be the link factor. In this paper we briefly reviewed the more recently reports on the role of oxidative stress in aging and age-related diseases with a specific focus on mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease. The role of antioxidant therapy and/or supplementation and the importance of an antioxidant rich diet are then discussed.

SUMMARY Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by abnormal fibrillar deposits of amyloid beta peptides (AP), which are suggested to play a pivotal role in driving disease pathogenesis. Although the aetiology of AD is still unknown, a perturbation of the immune system has been widely demonstrated in both animal experimental models and patients. The most studied aspect of immune reaction in AD is inflammation, which has been described to be implied in its pathogenic processes. Moreover, a growing body of evidence, indicating that the triggering of the specific AP immune response can be effective in reducing AD symptoms, suggest that a dysregulated network of innate and adaptive immune mechanisms could be critical in AD pathogenic process. The present short review, aimed to summarise some of the principal research studies on immune activation in AD, has the intent to provide suggestions useful to formulate new immune-therapeutic strategies for pathology treatment.
阿尔茨海默病(AD)是一种以淀粉样β肽(AP)异常纤维沉积为特征的神经退行性疾病,AP被认为在驱动疾病发病机制中起关键作用。尽管阿尔茨海默病的病因尚不清楚,但在动物实验模型和患者中,免疫系统的扰动已被广泛证实。阿尔茨海默病的免疫反应研究最多的方面是炎症,这已经被描述为隐含在其致病过程中。此外,越来越多的证据表明,触发特异性AP免疫反应可有效减轻AD症状,这表明先天和适应性免疫机制网络失调可能在AD发病过程中起关键作用。本文综述了近年来在阿尔茨海默病中免疫激活的主要研究成果,旨在为制定新的免疫治疗策略提供有益的建议。

This review discusses the phosphorylation of the Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) and the possible role of this phosphorylation in Alzheimer's disease (AD). AD is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the deposition of β-amyloid plaques in the brain parenchyma and neurofibrillary tangles comprised of hyperphosphorylated tau. APP plays a primary role in the pathogenesis of AD, because its processing generates the amyloid beta peptide (Aβ), the core of the amyloid plaque. APP has a large N-terminal extracellular domain and a short intracellular C-terminal domain that can be phosphorylated by various protein kinases. This review summarized recent work describing the phsphorylation of APP and the downstream events induced by this phosphorylation as well as the impact of APP phosphorylation on APP function and on the production of Aβ peptide.
本文综述了淀粉样蛋白前体蛋白(APP)的磷酸化及其在阿尔茨海默病(AD)中的可能作用。AD是一种神经退行性疾病,其特征是在脑实质中沉积β-淀粉样斑块和由过度磷酸化的tau组成的神经原纤维缠结。APP在AD的发病机制中起主要作用,因为其加工过程产生淀粉样蛋白β肽(a β),这是淀粉样斑块的核心。APP具有较大的胞外n端结构域和较短的胞内c端结构域,可被多种蛋白激酶磷酸化。本文综述了近年来有关APP磷酸化及其诱导的下游事件的研究进展,以及APP磷酸化对APP功能和Aβ肽产生的影响。

The author describes a refiguration of medical thought which originate from non linear dynamics and chaos theory. The coupling of computer science and these new theoretical bases allows the creation of “intelligent” agents (Artificial Adaptive Systems AAS) able to adapt themselves dynamically to problem of high complexity like Alzheimer Disease. ASS are able to reproduce the dynamical interactio of multiple factors simultaneously, allowing the study of complexity; they can also draw conclusions on individual basis and not as average trends. In the last years of co-operation between ITINAD, Bracco Medical Department and Semeion Research Centre different kinds of experiments have been performed with ANNs in Alzheimer Disease context. The specific application of ANN in most cases is original, and has followed two principal aims: –prediction of outcome or diagnosis in individual patients; –data mining of complex data sets. Several examples of applications will be described.
作者描述了一种源于非线性动力学和混沌理论的医学思想重构。计算机科学和这些新的理论基础的结合使得“智能”代理(人工适应系统)能够动态地适应像阿尔茨海默病这样高度复杂的问题。人工智能系统能够同时再现多个因素的动态相互作用,允许对复杂性进行研究;他们还可以根据个人情况得出结论,而不是根据平均趋势得出结论。在ITINAD、博莱科医学部门和Semeion研究中心过去几年的合作中,在阿尔茨海默病的背景下,用人工神经网络进行了不同类型的实验。在大多数情况下,人工神经网络的具体应用是原创的,并遵循两个主要目的:预测个体患者的预后或诊断;-复杂数据集的数据挖掘。将描述几个应用程序示例。

Nitric oxide is synthesized from L-arginine by nitric oxide synthase (NOS), and it is a free radical with signaling functions. Neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) is mainly expressed in the central nervous system, and it has been implicated in the pathogenesis of brain injury such as ischemia. In the present study, the effects of 7-nitroindazole, which specifically inhibits nNOS, on apoptosis and cell proliferation int he dentate gyrus after transient global ischemia in gerbils were investigated. Enhanced apoptotic neuronal cell death and cell proliferation were observed in the dentate gyrus of ischemic gerbils. However, 7-nitroindazole suppressed the ischemia-induced apoptosis and cell proliferation. These results suggest that 7-nitroindazole has an inhibitive effect on apoptosis and cell proliferation following transient global ischemia. The present study shows that nitric oxide, the synthesis of which is augmented by ischemia, plays an important role in the regulation of apoptosis and cell proliferation following ischemic injury.
一氧化氮是由l -精氨酸由一氧化氮合酶(NOS)合成的,是一种具有信号功能的自由基。神经元型一氧化氮合酶(Neuronal nitric oxide synthase, nNOS)主要表达于中枢神经系统,参与脑缺血等脑损伤的发病机制。本实验研究了特异性抑制nNOS的7-硝基茚唑对沙鼠短暂性全脑缺血后齿状回细胞凋亡和细胞增殖的影响。缺血沙鼠齿状回细胞凋亡和细胞增殖增强。而7-硝基吲唑对缺血诱导的细胞凋亡和细胞增殖有抑制作用。结果表明,7-硝基吲达唑对短暂性全脑缺血后的细胞凋亡和细胞增殖具有抑制作用。目前的研究表明,一氧化氮的合成在缺血损伤后的细胞凋亡和细胞增殖的调控中起重要作用。

We investigated whether the role of the astrocytic glutamate transporter GLT-1 is reversed when the ionic gradient across plasma membrane has collapsed, and if so, whether the reversal is crucial to neuronal death. To estimate the direction of glutamate transport by GLT-1, Na+ movement coupled with glutamate transport in astrocytes was analyzed in mixed astrocyte/neuron cultures. The rise in astrocytic intracellular Na+ due to glutamate exposure was suppressed by co-treatment with dihydrokainate (DHK). In contrast, the ouabain-induced rise in Na+ was significantly enhanced by DHK, suggesting that the role of GLT-1 was reversed. We then analyzed whether the reversal increased the amount of extracellular glutamate, and was crucial to excitotoxic neuronal death. Ouabain treatment resulted in a marked rise in glutamate and in neuronal death, and both the rise and cell death were significantly attenuated by DHK treatment.
我们研究了星形胶质细胞谷氨酸转运体GLT-1的作用是否在离子梯度跨质膜崩溃时被逆转,如果是这样,这种逆转是否对神经元死亡至关重要。为了估计GLT-1运输谷氨酸的方向,我们在星形胶质细胞/神经元混合培养中分析了Na+运动与谷氨酸运输的结合。与二氢盐(DHK)共同处理可抑制谷氨酸暴露引起的星形细胞内Na+的升高。相比之下,DHK显著增强了瓦巴因诱导的Na+升高,提示GLT-1的作用发生了逆转。然后,我们分析了这种逆转是否增加了细胞外谷氨酸的数量,并对兴奋性毒性神经元死亡至关重要。瓦巴因治疗导致谷氨酸和神经元死亡的显著增加,而DHK治疗显著减轻了谷氨酸和神经元死亡的增加。

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent cells that are derived from the inner cell mass of blastocysts. We produced neuronal cells by directed differentiation of a newly established murine ES cell line in vitro (Royan B1). Immunohistochemistry, scanning electron microscopy, Campenot's assay and electrophysiology were used to evaluate the differentiated neurons. Antibodies against microtubule-associated protein (MAP2), glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) antigens showed that the cells had GABAergic and dopaminergic characteristics. The Campenot's assay revealed there were a number of peripheral nerveous system related neurons but they were rare. The cells also produced action potentials and responded to electrical stimulation by expressing calcium channels in the processes. We showed therefore that functional neurons can be generated by directed differentiation from embryonic stem cells in vitro.
胚胎干细胞(ES)是一种多能细胞,来源于囊胚的内部细胞群。我们通过体外定向分化新建立的小鼠ES细胞系(Royan B1)产生神经细胞。采用免疫组化、扫描电镜、Campenot染色、电生理等方法对分化神经元进行评价。针对微管相关蛋白(MAP2)、谷氨酸脱羧酶(GAD)和酪氨酸羟化酶(TH)抗原的抗体显示细胞具有gaba能和多巴胺能特征。Campenot的分析显示,有一些周围神经系统相关的神经元,但它们是罕见的。细胞也产生动作电位,并通过表达钙通道对电刺激作出反应。因此,我们证明了功能神经元可以通过胚胎干细胞在体外定向分化产生。
