  1. Antibody-Mediated Clearance of Brain Amyloid-β: Mechanisms of Action, Effects of Natural and Monoclonal Anti-Aβ Antibodies, and Downstream Effects

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease reports 2023-08-14 Treatments

    Immunotherapeutic efforts to slow the clinical progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by lowering brain amyloid-β (Aβ) have included Aβ vaccination, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) products, and anti-Aβ monoclonal antibodies.

  2. "Therapeutic uses of natural astaxanthin: An evidence-based review focused on human clinical trials"

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Pharmacological research 2021-02-04 Brain scans and imaging

    Astaxanthin is a natural C40 carotenoid with numerous reported biological functions, most of them associated with its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, standing out from other antioxidants as it has shown the highest oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), 100-500 times higher than ⍺-tocopherol and a 10 times higher free radical inhibitory activity than related antioxidants (α-tocopherol, α-carotene, β -carotene, lutein and lycopene).

  3. Identification and characterization of natural antibodies against tau protein in an intravenous immunoglobulin product

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neuroimmunology 2015-10-28 Drug development

    The latest therapeutic approaches to Alzheimer disease are using intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) products.

  4. Argyrophilic grain pathology as a natural model of tau propagation

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Journal of Alzheimer's disease : JAD 2014-01-01 Drug development

    Argyrophilic grain disease (AGD) is a sporadic 4 R tauopathy that usually presents in combination with other sporadic tauopathies or with Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, and may contribute to dementia in older age patients.

  5. Alzheimer disease susceptibility loci: evidence for a protein network under natural selection

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. American journal of human genetics 2012-04-01 Genetics

    Recent genome-wide association studies have identified a number of susceptibility loci for Alzheimer disease (AD).
