Alzheimer's disease is a serious neurodegenerative disease growing globally. More than 55 million people around the world are suffering from Alzheimer's disease and dementia caused by it. Not only this, according to a statistic, every year more than 10 million new people are falling prey to Alzheimer's disease and dementia.
In this brain-related disorder, the size of the brain shrinks, causing damage to the cells. Due to this, the ability to remember, think, and understand things starts getting affected. In severe cases of Alzheimer's disease, there is a risk of dementia.
Some medicines are used to reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and to avoid its complications. Now Indian scientists have had great success in the treatment of this brain disorder.
Scientists developed new molecules.
Scientists at Pune-based Agharkar Research Institute have developed new molecules for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. Two scientists Prasad Kulkarni and Vinod Ugale designed and synthesized new molecules through synthetic, computational, and in-vitro studies. Experts say that these molecules are non-toxic and can be effective in the treatment of the disease.
Scientists have found that these molecules are effective against cholinesterase enzymes. Using them, medicines can be prepared which can be helpful in effectively curing this brain disease.
This discovery is important in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease
Researchers believe that this discovery can prove to be important in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. If its results are better, then in the future it can be very easy to treat this serious neurological problem.
Alzheimer's disease is caused by a disturbance in the communication process in the brain, resulting in a decrease in learning and memory. Along with this, the behavior of the person also starts changing.
Treatment of Alzheimer's
Till now, such medicines have been used in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease which help in reducing the symptoms. These medicines help in improving the symptoms related to loss of memory and other cognitive changes. Health experts hope that this discovery will make the treatment process even easier. It can prove to help improve the quality of life.
It is also important to keep the lifestyle right.
Another study conducted in Australia earlier regarding the treatment of Alzheimer's disease emphasized diet, exercise, and other lifestyle changes in patients. Researchers found that regular exercise and staying socially connected can reduce the risk of this disease compared to those with a bad routine. Going to social events, reading, dancing, playing games, playing an instrument and other activities can help reduce the risk of this serious health problem you.
