Probiotics and prebiotics have received attention in alleviating neurodegenerative diseases. () 69-2 was combined with galactooligosaccharides (GOS) and supplemented in a d-galactose (d-gal)-induced neurodegeneration and memory impairment mice model to explore its effects on the brain and the regulation of short-chain fatty acids. The results showed that the -GOS supplementation inhibited d-gal-induced oxidative stress and increased the brain's nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) levels. Butyrate, a metabolite of the gut microbiota regulated by combined with GOS, inhibits p-JNK expression, downregulates pro-apoptotic proteins expression and the activation of inflammatory mediators, and upregulates synaptic protein expression. This might be a potential mechanism for 69-2 combined with GOS supplementation to alleviate d-gal-induced neurodegeneration and memory impairment. This study sheds new light on the development of aging-related neuroprotective dietary supplements based on the gut-brain axis.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a prominent neurodegenerative disorder affecting the central nervous system in the elderly. Current understanding of AD primarily centers on the gradual decline in cognitive and memory functions, believed to be influenced by factors including mitochondrial dysfunction, β-amyloid aggregation, and neuroinflammation. Emerging research indicates that neuroinflammation plays a significant role in the development of AD, with the inflammasome potentially mediating inflammatory responses that contribute to neurodegeneration.

The ε4 variant of human apolipoprotein E () is a key genetic risk factor for neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease and elevated all-cause mortality in humans. Understanding the factors and mechanisms that can mitigate the harmful effects of has significant implications. In this study, we find that inactivating the VHL-1 (Von Hippel-Lindau) protein can suppress mortality, neural and behavioral pathologies caused by transgenic human in .

Introduction: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a leading cause of dementia, characterized by progressive neurodegeneration and cognitive dysfunction. The disease aetiology is closely associated with proteinopathies, mitochondrial abnormalities, and elevated ROS generation, which are some of the primary markers for AD brains.
Objectives: The current research was intended to elucidate the chemical interaction of β-pinene against potential targets and evaluate its neuroprotective potential in ICV-STZ-induced sAD.

Background And Objectives: Identifying genetic causes of dementia in patients visiting memory clinics is important for patient care and family planning. Traditional clinical selection criteria for genetic testing may miss carriers of pathogenic variants in dementia-related genes. This study aimed identify how many carriers we are missing and to optimize criteria for selecting patients for genetic counseling in memory clinics.
