The present paper reports the dependence of dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties on the porosity level in BaZrTiO ceramics with porosity from 5% to 21%. Microporosity with 0-3 connectivity has been produced using PMMA microspheres as a sacrificial template. The functional properties (dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric effect) are mostly affected by the "dilution effect": permittivity decreases by 40% when porosity increases by 21%, and P decreases from 13 to 5 µC/cm while the P is in the range of (2-8) µC/cm. However, the reduction of the zero-field permittivity and hysteretic behaviour of ε(E) while the tunability level is still high makes from porous ceramics interesting materials for tunability application.

Background: The goal of the TREAT-AD Center is to enable drug discovery by developing assays and providing tool compounds for novel and emerging targets. The role of microglia in neuroinflammation has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Genome-wide association studies, whole genome sequencing, and gene-expression network analyses comparing normal to AD brain have identified risk and protective variants in genes essential to microglial function.

The proposed primary indication for SUVN-I7016031 is in the treatment of dementia such as Alzheimer's disease dementia (ADD) and Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD). In the current research, the pharmacological properties of SUVN-I7016031 in various types of dementia were investigated.

Background: Cognitive impairment, a common aging-related pathology, is a risk factor for dementia. Echinacoside (ECH), derived from the traditional Chinese medicine Cistanche deserticola, shows anti-aging properties including anti-inflammation, oxidative stress reduction, and neuronal protection. Despite its benefits, the beneficial impact of ECH on age-related cognitive decline remains unclear.

Carrying two copies of APOE3Ch was sufficient to delay autosomal AD onset by 30 years. This remarkable protective effect makes it a strong candidate for uncovering new therapies against AD.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease and the most common form of dementia. Although AD is characterized by the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), it's estimated that nearly half of AD cases might be attributed to modifiable risk factors and lifestyle-based interventions may offer promising preventative strategies to delay disease onset and progression. Polyphenolic derivatives easily found in foods like luteolin and curcumin have shown beneficial effects to counteract cognitive decline.
