Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative characterized by amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregation, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress, and dysfunction in the mitochondria cholinergic system. In this study, synthesis of chitosan-polylactic acid-loaded magnesium oxide nanocomposite (CH/PLA/MgONCs) was examined using green precipitation method. The synthesized CH/PLA/MgONCs were confirmed UV-Vis spectrum, FT-IR, SEM-EDAX, physical properties. experiments carried out male Wistar rats injecting streptozotocin (STZ) bilaterally into brain's ventricles through intracerebroventricular (ICV) route at dose 3 mg/kg. We also evaluated effects doses 10 To assess cognitive induced ICV-STZ, we performed behavioral, biochemical, histopathological analyses. our study results, spectrum analysis showed 285 nm, FT-IR analyses that various functional groups present, SEM-EDAX cauliflower-like spherical shape, Mg O present. Treatment with (10 mg/kg) significant improvement spatial non-spatial memory functions. This further supported biochemical showing improved antioxidant enzyme (GSH, SOD, CAT, GPx activity) activities significantly attenuated activity stress. CH/PLA/MgONCs-treated group, observed mitochondrial complex activity. ICV-STZ-induced as indicated increased levels TNF-α, IL-6, CRP, reduced treatment. Additionally, treated histological results healthy neuronal cells brain. Furthermore, silico studies confirm these molecules have good binding affinity inhibit Aβ aggregation. conclusion, treatment reversed AD pathology improving reducing dysfunction. These findings recommend are possible therapeutic agents to treat AD.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a complex neurodegenerative disorder, with amyloid-beta (Aβ) aggregation playing key role in its pathogenesis. Aβ-induced oxidative stress leads to neuronal damage, mitochondrial dysfunction, and apoptosis, making antioxidative strategies promising for AD treatment. This study investigates the effects of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) zebrafish model. Zebrafish were exposed aluminum chloride induce AD-like pathology then treated HRW using nanobubble device. Behavioral assays, ELISA, Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining, reactive oxygen species (ROS) neutrophil fluorescence labeling employed assess HRW's impact. Additionally, 16S rRNA sequencing analyzed effect on gut microbiota. can significantly improve cognitive impairment depression-like behavior model, reduce Aβ deposition (p < 0.0001), regulate liver Soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) levels 0.05), neuroinflammation, stress. Furthermore, reduced number harmful bacteria linked by restoring balance microbiota gut. These findings suggest that has potential as therapeutic strategy targeting stress, inflammation, gut-brain axis modulation.

Helicobacter pylori infection consists a high global burden affecting more than 50% of the world's population. It is implicated, beyond substantiated local gastric pathologies, i.e., peptic ulcers and cancer, in pathophysiology several neurodegenerative disorders, mainly by inducing hyperhomocysteinemia-related brain cortical thinning (BCT). BCT has been advocated as possible biomarker associated with central nervous system disorders such Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's multiple sclerosis, and/or glaucoma, termed "ocular disease". According to hypothesis relation neurodegeneration, non-commensal gut microbiome trigger mediator diseases, development disease.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that comprises amyloid-beta protein (Aβ) as main component of neuritic plaques. Its deposition considered trigger for AD pathogenesis, progression, and the clinical symptoms cognitive impairment. Some distinct pathological features include phosphorylation tau protein, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction. These consequences tend to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS), resulting in dysregulation various signaling pathways neuroinflammation neurodegeneration.

Oxidative stress is proven to be a leading factor in multitude of adverse conditions, from Alzheimer’s disease cancer. Thus, developing effective radical scavenging agents eliminate reactive oxygen species (ROS) driving many oxidative processes has become critical. In addition conventional antioxidants, nanoscale structures and metal–organic complexes have recently shown promising potential for scavenging. To design an optimal ROS agent, we synthesized ten types biocompatible graphene quantum dots (GQDs) augmented with various metal dopants. The abilities these novel metal-doped GQD were, the first time, assessed via DPPH, KMnO4, RHB (Rhodamine B protectant) assays. While all GQDs consistently demonstrate antioxidant properties higher than undoped cores, aluminum-doped exhibit 60–95% ability ascorbic acid positive control. Tm-doped match KMnO4 assay. All doped possess fluorescence imaging capabilities that enable their tracking vitro, ensuring successful cellular internalization. Given such multifunctionality, antioxidants can prospective candidates multimodal therapeutics, including reduction concomitant therapeutic delivery cancer tumors.
