Newest first, then by address. Each study has a usefulness score out of 100 (rubric version 4.0); tap a score to see what makes it up. Tags were assigned automatically from each study's title and summary. The same studies as a filter in the library.

  1. Microdose Lithium NP03 Diminishes Pre-Plaque Oxidative Damage and Neuroinflammation in a Rat Model of Alzheimer's-like Amyloidosis

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Current Alzheimer research 2018-01-01 TREM2 and immune genetics

    These results suggest that NP03 may function to slow the AD-like pathology in part by modifying oxidative/nitrosative damage and neuroinflammation, raising the possibility that low doses of microencapsulated lithium might be of therapeutic-preventive value during very early or preclinical AD.

  2. Oxidative damage of DJ-1 is linked to sporadic Parkinson and Alzheimer diseases

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of biological chemistry 2006-03-03 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Mutations in DJ-1 cause an autosomal recessive, early onset familial form of Parkinson disease (PD).

  3. Neurotoxicity and oxidative damage of beta amyloid 1-42 versus beta amyloid 1-40 in the mouse cerebral cortex

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences 1999-01-01 Biomarkers

    Senile plaques (SP), a neuropathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), are characterized by extracellular accumulations of beta amyloid (A beta).
