Linking gut microbiota dysbiosis to molecular pathways in Alzheimer's disease.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder marked by cognitive decline and synaptic dysfunction. Emerging evidence suggests a significant relationship between gut microbiota and brain health, mediated through the gut-brain axis. Alterations in gut microbiota composition may influence AD progression by affecting molecular pathways and miRNA interactions.

A review of the advances, insights, and prospects of gene therapy for Alzheimer's disease: A novel target for therapeutic medicine.

Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) are still an important issue for scientists because it is difficult to cure with the available molecular medications and conventional treatments. Due to the complex nature of the brain structures and heterogeneous morphological and physiological properties of neuronal cells, interventions for cerebral-related disorders using surgical approaches, and classical and ongoing treatments remain hard for physicians. Furthermore, the development of newly designed medications attempts to target AD are not successful in improving AD, because abnormalities of tau protein, aggregation of amyloid β (Aβ) peptide, inflammatory responses, etc lead to advanced neurodegeneration processes that conventional treatments cannot stop them.

Enhancing the biodesulphurization capacity of Rhodococcus sp. FUM94 in a biphasic system through optimization of operational factors.

The biodesulfurization activity of bacteria through the 4S pathway in aqueous-oil emulsions is affected by various operational factors. These factors also demonstrate interacting effects that influence the potential for field applications of biodesulfurization technology and can solely be deciphered through multi-variable experiments. In this study, the effects of the influential factors and their interactions on the desulfurizing activity of a newly identified desulfurizing bacterium, Rhodococcus sp, FUM94 were quantitatively investigated.
