Neurodegeneration: Advanced Researches Antonio Chavez

Neurodegeneration is a gradual but irreversible process of neuronal damage and neuronal death. It is a common characteristic of neurodegenerative disorders such as AlzheimerÂ’s disease and ParkinsonÂ’s disease, among others. Research is being conducted to determine the underlying cause of this process. One of the strategies for this involves the study of neurodegenerative conditions and identifying similarities and parallels among these on a sub-cellular level. Finding such similarities allows the development of therapeutic strategies to combat these diseases and manage neural degeneration. Immunotherapy is another emerging area of research. Neurodegeneration is an active area of study that has undergone rapid advancement over the past few decades. It brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the unexplored aspects of neurodegeneration. This book is appropriate for students seeking detailed information in this area as well as for experts.
