Neuronal correlates of psychiatric and cognitive symptoms in early Motor Neurone Disease.LUCIO D'ANNA
The symptoms of Alzheimer disease reflect a loss of neural circuit integrity in the brain, but neurons do not work in isolation. Emerging evidence suggests that the intricate balance of interactions between neurons, astrocytes, microglia and vascular cells required for healthy brain function becomes pe...
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Paul Aiken, the long-time executive director of the Authors Guild, announced today that he has early-stage Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), a fatal illness also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease in the US and Motor Neurone Disease in the UK. There is no known...

The most important finding was that many of the patients who made no complaint of any chest symptoms had X-ray evidence of pneumonia. This was in all cases but two in the posterior basal segment of the lower lobe. In one case there was an associated middle lobe pneumonia, and in another...

The patient developed first clinical symptoms when he was 30-years old. He had a spinal onset with involvement of upper limbs. The progression of the disease was very rapid and the patient underwent tracheostomy 5 months after the onset, due to respiratory muscles failure. When the patient was...
Also, the pathological alterations in AD start years before the onset of clinical symptoms. To identify proteins at play during the early stage of AD, we conducted proteomic analysis of the hippocampus of young AppNL-F mice model of AD at the preclinical phase of the disease. This was ...
Pathological changes in cells or in cellular groups were, according to this concept, the seat of disease. In addition, Virchow was well known hygienist and advocate of social health. He was a member of the German Reichstag, a member of the municipal council of Berlin, and he organised the ...
