#Molecular Inhibitor Breaks Cycle That Leads to Alzheimer's A molecular chaperone has been found to inhibit a key stage in the development of Alzheimer disease and break the toxic chain reaction that leads to the death of brain cells, a new study shows.
While some recent AD genome-wide association studies (GWAS), which search the entire human genome for small variations,
other studies have found no association. In comparison, a number of studies have found a strong association between MAPT and other neurodegenerative disorders,
such as PD. hough a tremendous amount of work has been conducted showing the involvement of the tau protein in Alzheimer disease,
The recent association of genetic variation in the MAPT gene with AD risk and the emerging availability of tau imaging are now leading to a recognition that perhaps tau changes are key in the pathophysiologic pathway of AD

#Neuroscientists reverse memories emotional associations Most memories have some kind of emotion associated with them: Recalling the week you just spent at the beach probably makes you feel happy
Furthermore the researchers found that they could reverse the emotional association of specific memories by manipulating brain cells with optogenetics a technique that uses light to control neuron activity.
Previous research has shown that many aspects of memory including emotional associations are malleable. Psychotherapists have taken advantage of this to help patients suffering from depression
when their hippocampal cells were activated showing that a pleasant association had replaced the fearful one. This reversal also took place in mice that went from reward to fear conditioning.
This suggests that emotional associations also called valences are encoded somewhere in the neural circuitry that connects the dentate gyrus to the amygdala the researchers say.
and amygdala cells that encode positive associations. That plasticity of the connection between the hippocampus and the amygdala plays a crucial role in the switching of the valence of the memory Tonegawa says.

If DNA damage is too extensive p53 forces the cell to undergo programmed cell death
Usually p53 is the main driver of cell death and if cells lose this pathway they become very resistant to different treatments that cause cell death Morandell says.
Several years ago researchers in Yaffe s lab discovered that in cancer cells with mutated p53 the MK2 gene helps counteract the effects of chemotherapy.
when cisplatin was delivered to cellular structures called mitochondria DNA in this organelle was damaged leading to cancer cell death.
whether they could induce cell death by targeting MITOCHONDRIAL DNA particularly in cells that are already resistant to regular cisplatin.
The researchers also showed that the cells were dying through apoptosis and not some less-controlled form of cell death.
There are other ways for a cell to die besides apoptosis. You want a therapeutic agent to induce programmed cell death
With forms of nonprogrammed cell death cellular toxins can spread leading to inflammation and other deleterious consequences Radford says.
These replays occur in association with very high frequency brainwave oscillations known as ripple events. In mice lacking calcineurin the researchers found that brain activity was normal as the mice ran the course

#Which Drugs Actually Kill Americans Infographic Death reporting in the U s. requires an underlying cause the event or disease that lead to the death.
In addition to the underlying cause a death certificate has space for up to 20 additional causes. That's where cocaine or antidepressants would show up.
And about a quarter of all overdose death certificates don't have the toxicity test results listed at all landing them in the unspecified stripe.
About half of those additional deaths are in the pharmaceuticals category which the CDC has written about before.
Nearly three-quarters of the pharmaceuticals deaths are opioid analgesics prescription painkillers like Oxycontin and Vicodin.
And while cocaine heroin and alcohol are all responsible for enough deaths to warrant their own stripes on the chart many popular illegal drugs including marijuana

I doubt there would be any statistical significance in comparing deaths across those groups. The only thing this graph really shows me is that pharmaceutical overdoses have increased quite a bit from 1999-2010between 1999 and 2010 the US population increased by 11%to 308 million.

What is represented not effectively conspicuously seemingly by design are drugs that cause zero deaths. One or more of these things is not like the others
1. This chart shows deaths caused by drug overdose. It does not show deaths from chronic health problems caused by drug use nor accidents (car crashes falls) nor suicides while intoxicated.
If all these other deaths were shown the death count for alcohol would be much much greater. 2. Overdose deaths from cannabis LSD magic mushrooms
