Study on the Improvement of Cognitive Function in ICV-STZ-Induced Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Model by Lycium Barbarum Polysaccharides Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system, characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, memory loss, personality changes, and emotion...

Activation of Central Nervous System Immunity: A Study on Resiquimod Mechanism

TLR7 Induces CCL2 Expression in Neurons via NF-κB Research Background Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are one of the important mechanisms for recognizing specific molecular structures of microbes. In humans, ten TLRs (TLR1-10) are known, among which TLR3 and TLR7 are located on the endosomal membrane and play important roles in sensing virus-derived nuc...

Effect of Clemizole on Alpha-Synuclein-Preformed Fibrils-Induced Parkinson’s Disease Pathology: A Pharmacological Investigation

Effect of Clemizole on Alpha-Synuclein-Preformed Fibrils-Induced Parkinson’s Disease Pathology: A Pharmacological Investigation

Effects of Clemizole on Parkinson’s Disease Pathology Induced by α-Synuclein Fibril Formation Background Introduction Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a typical neurodegenerative disease, mainly associated with mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress.
