Definitions
- the present invention relates to the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive impairment; and the improvement and enhancement of cognitive function.
- the present invention relates to the use of peptides for the prevention or treatment of neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive disorders, preferably Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
- the invention also relates to the use of peptides for improving or enhancing cognitive function in a subject.
- Neurodegenerative disease or neurodegenerative disease is a disease directly caused by the gradual degeneration of neurons. Degenerative processes may involve progressive loss of neuronal structure, progressive loss of neuronal function, or progressive neuronal cell death. This progressive neurodegeneration often leads to physical disability and mental deterioration. Many neurodegenerative diseases are severe, progressive and ongoing diseases with few treatments. Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) are the two most important neurodegenerative diseases.
- AD Alzheimer's disease
- PD Parkinson's disease
- Neurocognitive Disorder also known as Dementia
- Dementia is a type of brain disease that causes long-term and gradual deterioration of thinking ability and memory, and affects a person's daily life activities.
- the most common type of dementia is Alzheimer's disease, which accounts for 50 to 70 percent of all dementia patients.
- Dementia affects 36 million people worldwide. About 10% of the population will develop the disease during their lifetime.
- Dementia is closely related to age (aging), with approximately 3% of the population developing dementia between the ages of 65 and 74, another 19% between the ages of 75 and 84, and nearly half of the population over the age of 85 developing dementia. .
- AD Alzheimer's disease
- the most common early symptom is loss of short-term memory.
- symptoms may gradually appear, including language difficulties, disorientation, mood swings, loss of motivation, inability to care for oneself, and many behavioral problems.
- patients often become disconnected from family or society, gradually lose physical function, and eventually die.
- the course of the disease varies from person to person, the average life expectancy after diagnosis is about three to nine years.
- AD Alzheimer's disease
- a ⁇ beta-amyloid
- microglial activation is involved in the spread of tau tangles in the neocortex in Alzheimer's disease, which in turn leads to the occurrence of cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease patients (see Tharick A .Pascoal et al., Microglial activation and tau propagate jointly across Braak stages, Nature Medicine, 27, pages 1592–1599 (2021 August)).
- Microglial activation is part of the immune response in the human brain and is a key factor associated with the development of Alzheimer's disease. Excessive activation of microglia is not only an epiphenomenon of inflammation, but also a key upstream mechanism that is crucial to the development of AD.
- Parkinson's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease affecting the central nervous system, mainly affecting the motor nervous system. Its symptoms usually appear slowly over time. The most obvious early symptoms are tremor, limb stiffness, reduced motor function and abnormal gait. Cognitive and behavioral problems may also be present. Dementia is quite common in severely ill patients.
- Selegiline is a monoamine oxidase (MAO)-B inhibitor (MAOI).
- MAOI monoamine oxidase
