- Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) poses a risk for mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and the progression to dementia, potentially due to high glucose levels disrupting neurovascular (NV) coupling.
- A study involving 33 T2DM patients without MCI and 33 healthy controls used advanced imaging techniques to assess cerebral blood flow (CBF) and its relationship with cognitive performance.
- The findings indicated that T2DM patients showed reduced CBF coupling measures, particularly in brain areas related to the default mode network, with stronger coupling linked to better cognitive function.
We investigated the effects of an aqueous alcohol extract of Rhodiola rosea (R. rosea) and its hydrolysate on melanin synthesis and the mechanisms mediating the activity. The ratio of tyrosol to salidroside was 2.
