Product Description: On the
heels of World War I, another atrocity emerged to take millions more
lives: flu. Overshadowed by that worldwide viral menace was an
equally—indeed, Crosby believes, an even more—frightening killer,
encephalitis lethargica (EL). If the name rings no bell, perhaps
that isn’t surprising, since the malady claimed “only” a million
lives, though it left at least that many more permanently disabled,
before dropping off epidemiologists’ maps around 1927. The illness’
popular moniker, sleeping sickness, is more familiar, to the point
of seeming innocuous. But the disease was and is anything but. No
one has ever been able to articulate its etiology. Just because it
flared up during a flu pandemic doesn’t mean it is linked to flu by
either causation or correlation. Yet the concurrence cannot be
discounted. |

Product Description:
Alzheimer's disease is the leading cause of dementia in the elderly.
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a prominent and early feature of the
disease, although the reason for this is unclear. Mitochondrial
function is highly dependent on mitochondria morphology which is
regulated by mitochondria fission and fusion proteins. In this
study, we found disease-related changes in mitochondrial morphology
and distribution as well as changes in expression levels and
distribution of mitochondrial fission and fusion proteins.
Interestingly, functional protein changes mimicking that found in
AD, are correlated with similar changes in mitochondrial morphology
and distribution to that observed in AD. |
