Background: Accumulation of amyloid beta 42 (Aβ42) senile plaques is the most critical event leading to Alzheimer's disease (AD). Currently approved drugs for AD have not been able to effectively modify the disease. This has caused increasing research interests in health beneficial nutritious plant foods as viable alternative therapy to prevent or manage AD.

Prior data published in the Wang lab suggests that carbon dots (CDs) synthesized from citric acid and urea can inhibit aggregation. We sought to characterize the inhibitory effects of a new class of CDs synthesized from varied ratios of Congo red and citric acid.

Background: Reactive astrocytes and neuron death by excitotoxicity are observed in Alzheimer's disease (AD). DHA-H (2-hydroxy-docosahexaenoic acid; 2-OH-C22:6 n-3) is a molecule under development that has demonstrated therapeutic efficacy in both cellular and 5xFAD mouse model of AD. DHA-H is metabolized through α-oxidation to yield HPA (Heneicosapentaenoic acid; C21:5 n-3).

Background: Effect of dynamic lighting on sleep were studied since 1980's. Traditional light sources were used due to lack of advancement in technology and also researchers assumed illuminance as cause of melatonin suppression. This led researchers to use high illuminance to suppress melatonin at day time.
