Alzheimer Disease (AD) Cell Therapy Using Human Neural Stem Cells: Validity of the Approach
Author(s): Ashok Chakraborty* and Anil Diwan
Background: Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is an increasing neurodegenerative disease in the world where dementia is the symptoms caused due to the death of
functional neural cells; and could end up even to death. No real medicines or any therapeutic regiment, other than some palliatives, are available even to date.
Prevalence: Approximately 5.5 million people in the United States and 47 million people worldwide are currently affected by AD. It is expected that by 2050, nearly
a million new cases per year may develop.
Symptoms: Memory loss is usually the first sign of Alzheimer's disease which is different than normal memory problems, being it as an irreversible.
Causes: In healthy neurons, tau protein normally binds to and stabilizes microtubules, which help normal neuronal functions for.. Read More»
