Alzheimer's Disease Research Guide: Animal Models for Understanding Mechanisms and Medications

Autor Takaomi C. Saido
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 aug 2024
Alzheimer's Disease Research Guide: Animal Models for Understanding Mechanisms and Medications provides researchers with a comprehensive guide, detailing every aspect of Alzheimer's Disease research, including chapters on neuroinflammation, immunotherapy, biomarkers, and animal modeling. This book begins with historical perspectives of both pathological chronology and pathological biochemistry in relation to Alzheimer’s disease. Other chapters review Amyloidogenic AB and Non-Amyloidogenic tau and Metabolism of AB major components to the research and understanding of Alzheimer’s research. The book concludes with specific treatment chapters including how to develop safe, effective, and inexpensive medications and the application of genome editing to the treatment of Familial Alzheimer's Disease.

Written by world renowned expert in Alzheimer’s research, this book is a valuable resource for all researchers.

  • Reviews why familial Alzheimer’s disease is vital to understanding sporadic Alzheimer’s disease
  • Describes the latest “game changer” animal models of Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia in detail
  • Explains how various Alzheimer’s disease medications have failed clinical trials
  • Discusses pros and cons of therapeutic antibodies, lecanemab and donanemab, that were recently found to be effective in recent clinical trials
  • Details the application of genome editing as a treatment for familial Alzheimer’s disease
  • Proposes publishing “Journal of Negative Data” for the days of generative AI-assisted publication, AI being unable to distinguish between reproducible and unreproducible data, particularly important in Alzheimer’s research

Recenzii

"Disease -modifying drugs have been approved, and the research field for Alzheimer's disease is now entering a new stage. This book is relevant during such a time of transition. This inspiring book concentrates on the essence of fighting at the frontlines of Alzheimer’s research. In particular, it conveys the importance of focusing on one's own research from a long-term perspective." -- Kenichi Nagata, Designated Lecturer, Department of Functional Anatomy & Neuroscience, Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine

"Written by a prominent leader in the Alzheimer’s disease research field, this book is a marvelous must-read guidebook for next generations interested in Alzheimer’s disease studies, especially in animal models of Alzheimer’s disease. Each chapter is written with historical emphasis and lively manner in such a way that readers can enjoy close dialogues with the author. This is the book I looked for 8 years ago when I started Alzheimer’s disease research!" -- Kei M Igarashi, Ph.D., Chancellor’s Fellow Associate Professor, Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology, University of California, Irvine
