Neurodegenerative Diseases - Blood
Research News and Information
Definition of 'Neurodegenerative Diseases'Hereditary and sporadic conditions which are characterized by progressive nervous system dysfunction. These disorders are often associated with atrophy of the affected central or peripheral nervous system structures. Common names: Neurodegenerative Diseases; Neurodegenerative Disease; Degenerative Diseases, Neurologic; Neurologic Degenerative Disease; Degenerative Neurologic Diseases; Degenerative Neurologic Disease; Neurologic Disease, Degenerative; Neurologic Diseases, Degenerative; Nervous System Degenerative Diseases |

Reduced circulating angiogenic cells in Alzheimer disease.
24 May 2009 
OBJECTIVE: Neurovascular dysfunction and senescent endothelium contribute to the progression of Alzheimer disease (AD). Circulating angiogenic cells (CACs), such as endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), provide a cellular reservoir for the ... Read more...

Autoantibodies against different axonal cytoskeletal proteins [the light (NFL) and medium (NFM) subunit of neurofilament and tubulin (TUB)] in serum and cerebrospinal fluid may be generated in response to the release of cytoskeleton from damaged ... Read more...
A machine-learning approach to the prediction of oxidative stress in chronic inflammatory disease.
30 Dec 2008 Oxidative stress is implicated in the development of a wide range of chronic human diseases, ranging from cardiovascular to neurodegenerative and inflammatory disorders. As oxidative stress results from a complex cascade of biochemical reactions, ... Read more...
