Article Synopsis
- Alzheimer's disease is a serious disorder causing memory loss and cognitive decline, with emerging evidence linking changes in gut microbiota to its development.
- The review highlights how gut dysbiosis contributes to neuroinflammation and amyloid β accumulation, emphasizing the gut-brain axis as a crucial communication pathway between the gut and the brain.
- It suggests that probiotic supplementation may help restore gut microbiota balance and improve cognitive function in Alzheimer's patients, advocating for more research into microbiota-focused treatment strategies.
Concern about radiation exposure to non-human biota and the environment has increased since the 1990s, resulting in several publications by UNSCEAR, IAEA, ICRP, among other agencies, which highlighted significant gaps in knowledge regarding non-human biota and resulted in the establishment of Reference Animals and Plants (RAPs). In Brazil, the Atlantic Forest biome has vast biodiversity, but there is a lack of information on the radiometric profile of plant species growing there. Thus, the objective of this study was to evaluate the radiometric profile of Ouratea miersii (Malpighiales), endemic to the Atlantic Rainforest, collected in the State of Rio de Janeiro, city of Niterói, at the Municipal Natural Park (PARNIT), which covers a region of protected Atlantic Rainforest.
