Best Articles On Neurodegenerative Diseases

Neurodegenerative diseases pose a major threat to human health. These age-related disorders are becoming more common, in part because the elderly population has increased in recent years. Examples of neurodegenerative diseases are Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal dementia and spinocerebellar ataxias. These pathologies are diverse in their pathophysiology - some causing memory and cognitive impairments and others affecting a person's ability to move, speak and breathe. Effective treatments are desperately needed, but will only come with a thorough understanding of the causes and mechanisms of each disease.

One way to learn how a disease works is to develop a model system that summarizes the characteristic features of the disease. Powerful experimental model organisms such as the mouse, fruit fly, nematode worm and even baker's yeast have been used for many years to study neurodegenerative diseases and have provided key information on the mechanisms of the disease.
