Alzheimer's disease is a complex neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive decline in cognitive function and behaviour. Ginger is the rhizome of the plant Zingiber officinale Roscoe, has been an important ingredient of many Ayurveda formulations to treat neurological disorders. The present study aims to estimate the variation of 6-gingerol content in nine different ginger samples collected from Manipur, India, investigate the neuroprotective potential of the most potent ginger sample against scopolamine-induced cognitively impaired mice, and validate the therapeutic claim by molecular docking analysis.

Diseases and injuries can cause significant bone loss, leading to increased medical expenses, decreased work efficiency, and a decline in quality of life. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is gaining attention as an alternative to autologous and allogeneic transplantation due to the limited availability of donors. Biomaterials represent a promising strategy for bone regeneration, and their design should consider the three key processes in bone tissue engineering: osteogenesis, bone conduction, and bone induction.

Impulse Control Disorders (ICDs) are increasingly recognized as a significant non-motor complication in Parkinson's disease (PD), impacting patients and their caregivers. ICDs in PD are primarily associated with dopaminergic treatments, particularly dopamine agonists, though not all patients develop these disorders, indicating a role for genetic and other clinical factors. Studies over the past few years suggest that the mesocorticolimbic reward system, a core neural substrate for impulsivity, is a key contributor to ICDs in PD.

Background And Objectives: Patients with synucleinopathies such as multiple system atrophy (MSA) and Parkinson's disease (PD) frequently display speech and language abnormalities. We explore the diagnostic potential of automated linguistic analysis of natural spontaneous speech to differentiate MSA and PD.
Methods: Spontaneous speech of 39 participants with MSA compared to 39 drug-naive PD and 39 healthy controls matched for age and sex was transcribed and linguistically annotated using automatic speech recognition and natural language processing.

Background And Objective: Psilocybin is currently being extensively studied as a potential therapeutic agent for multiple psychiatric disorders. Here, a systematic literature review of all published pharmacokinetic data on the pharmacologically active metabolite of psilocybin, psilocin, is presented.
Methods: The review includes clinical studies that reported pharmacokinetic data and/or parameters after psilocybin administration in humans.
