The coconut tree (Cocos nucifera) which is also known as the "Tree of life" has its own values in each part and oil more prestigious among them. At present, consumption booming all around world owing to tremendous health benefits. unique chemical composition enriched with medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs) led exploration these nutritional therapeutic influences. Unlike long (LCFAs), MCFAs generated from digestion triglycerides (MCTs) a specific pathway for metabolism, it bypasses lymphatic system enter liver directly through portal vein. Due such distinct attributes absorption MCTs are readily capable forming ketone bodies than other triglycerides. These competent energy source brains, especially those having cognitive impairments like Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Neurons are highly specialized postmitotic cells that inherently dependent on mitochondria owing to their high bioenergetic demand. Mitochondrial dysfunction is therefore associated with various age-related neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), wherein accumulation of damaged and dysfunctional has been reported early symptoms further contributing progression. In AD, impairment mitochondrial function causes deficiency, intracellular calcium imbalance oxidative stress thereby aggravating the effect Aβ tau pathologies, leading synaptic dysfunction, cognitive memory loss. Although there reports suggesting intricate parallelism between AD pathologies A aggregation hyperphosphorylated accumulation, factors drive pathogenesis either unclear. addition, emerging evidence suggests quality control (QC) mechanisms mitophagy impaired in AD. As an important QC mechanism, plays a critical role maintaining neuronal health function. Studies show different proteins involved mitophagy, dynamics biogenesis affected The compromised may also be attributed autophagosome-lysosome fusion defects lysosomal acidification. Therapeutic interventions aiming restore functions can used strategy for ameliorating pathogenesis. Recent implicates microglial activation via induction reducing amyloid plaque load.

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) has a crucial function in the central nervous system and sensory structures including olfactory auditory systems. Many studies have highlighted protective effects of BDNF brain, showing how it can promote neuronal growth survival modulate synaptic plasticity. On other hand, conflicting data about expression functions cochlear been reported. Several clinical experimental research showed alterations levels neurodegenerative diseases affecting peripheral system, suggesting that be promising biomarker most conditions, Alzheimer’s disease, shearing loss, or impairment. Here, we summarize current concerning brain domains (olfaction hearing), focusing on BDNF/TrkB signalling pathway activation both physiological pathological conditions. Finally, review significant highlighting possibility to target as early diagnosis cognitive neurodegeneration, opening new opportunities develop effective therapeutic strategies aimed counteract neurodegeneration.

Classical microtubule‐associated proteins (MAPs) were originally identified based on their co‐purification with microtubules assembled from mammalian brain lysate. They have since been found to perform a range of functions involved in regulating the dynamics microtubule cytoskeleton. Most these MAPs play integral roles organization during neuronal development, remodeling activity, and stabilization maintenance. As result, mutations contribute neurodevelopmental disorders, psychiatric conditions, neurodegenerative diseases. are post‐translationally regulated by phosphorylation depending developmental time point cellular context. Phosphorylation can affect affinity, localization, or overall function particular MAP thus profound implications for health. Here we review MAP1, MAP2, MAP4, MAP6, MAP7, MAP9, tau, DCX, how each is physiology disease. Developmental Dynamics 247:138–155, 2018 . © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The blood-brain barrier (BBB) regulates the delivery of oxygen and important nutrients to brain through active passive transport prevents neurotoxins from entering brain. It also has a clearance function removes carbon dioxide toxic metabolites central nervous system (CNS). Several drugs are unable cross BBB enter CNS, adding complexity drug screens targeting disorders. A well-functioning is essential for maintaining healthy tissue, malfunction BBB, linked its permeability, results in toxins immune cells CNS. This impairment associated with variety neurological diseases, including Alzheimer's disease Parkinson's disease. Here, we summarize current knowledge about neurodegenerative diseases. Furthermore, focus on recent progress using human-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived models study BBB. We review potential novel cell-based platforms modeling address advances key challenges technology human Finally, highlight future directions this area.

Damage or loss of brain cells and impaired neurochemistry, neurogenesis, synaptic nonsynaptic plasticity the lead to dementia in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). Injury synapses neurons accumulation extracellular amyloid plaques intracellular neurofibrillary tangles are considered main morphological neuropathological features AD. Age, genetic epigenetic factors, environmental stressors, lifestyle contribute risk AD onset progression. These factors associated with structural functional changes brain, leading cognitive decline. Biomarkers reflect cause specific function, especially pathways neurotransmission, neuroinflammation, bioenergetics, apoptosis, oxidative nitrosative stress. Even initial stages, is Aβ neurotoxicity, mitochondrial dysfunction, tau neurotoxicity. The integrative amyloid-tau-mitochondrial hypothesis assumes that primary neurotoxicity oligomers oligomers, their mutual synergy. For development new efficient drugs, targeting elimination potentiation effects, unwanted protein interactions biomarkers (mainly dysfunction) early stage seems promising.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by decreased synaptic transmission and cerebral atrophy with appearance of amyloid plaques neurofibrillary tangles. Cognitive, functional, behavioral alterations are commonly associated the disease. Different pathophysiological pathways AD have been proposed, some which interact influence one another. Current treatment for mainly involves use therapeutic agents to alleviate symptoms in patients. The conventional single-target approaches do not often cause desired effect due its multifactorial origin. Thus, multi-target strategies since undertaken, aim simultaneously target multiple targets involved development AD. In this review, we provide an overview pathogenesis current drug therapies Additionally, rationales examples drugs pharmacological actions against also discussed.
