Epidemiological studies demonstrate that diseases of the central nervous system such as Alzheimer, Parkinson and schizophrenia protect against cancer. The most remarkable example is Alzheimer's disease, which can reduce the risk of suffering from cancer by up to 50%. Various theories have been put f...
Central Nervous System Understanding the risks of central nervous system (CNS) toxicity is critically important in long-term follow-up of childhood cancer survivors. Many survivors experience learning difficulties in school, which can be ameliorated with an appropriate individualized educatio...
The central nervous system (CNS) is the most delicate system in human body, with the most complex structure and function. It is vulnerable to trauma, infection, neurodegeneration and autoimmune diseases, and activates the immune system. An appropriate inflammatory response contributes to defence again...
Hope believes that a growing body of evidence points to ivermectin helping to protect the nervous system from EMF damage "during this dangerous time in our history." "Ivermectin may not just be the anti-parasitic, anti-cancer, anti-viral repurposed...
Exercise is one of the best interventions to maintain a healthy nervous system and improve cognitive function. Just 30-minute daily bouts of moderate-intensity physical activity can boost cognitive performance. [13, 20] And long-term regular exercise may protect neurons by enhancing DNA repair proce...
(BDNF, GDNF, bFGF, IGF1, EGF, NGF) protect against induction of the intrinsic apoptotic cascade via tropomyosin-related receptor kinase (TRK) receptor signaling through PI3K-AKT and MAPK pathways [204,205]. The brain is especially susceptible to oxidative stress given high oxygen demands, high ...
Neuroinflammation (NI) is the process by which an organism attempts to remove an injurious stimulus in the central nervous system (CNS) and initiate the healing process to protect the cells and overall function of the brain. From:Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry,2012 ...
Natural killer (NK) cells are essential components of the innate lymphoid cell family that work as both cytotoxic effectors and immune regulators. Accumulating evidence points to interactions between NK cells and the central nervous system (CNS). Here, w
While still limited, the improvement is also evident in malignant tumors with origin in the brain and nervous system (Weller et al., 2014). Even in the setting of cure, cancer survivors often face lifelong challenges that hamper their function and quality of life (Burg et al., 2015). A...
Traumatic injuries to the central nervous system (CNS) afflict millions of individuals worldwide1, yet an effective treatment remains elusive. Following such injuries, the site is populated by a multitude of peripheral immune cells, including T cells, bu
