Background In cross-sectional studies, elevated plasma homocysteine levels have been associated with poor cognition and dementia. Studies of newly diagnosed dementia are required in order to establish whether the elevated…
In a case/control study, serum concentrations of vitamins A and E and major carotenoids were determined in patients with Alzheimer's disease, multi-infarct dementia and control subjects. The results showed that…
Oxidative stress and neuronal energy depletion are characteristic biochemical hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It is therefore conceivable that pro-energetic and antioxidant drags such as α-lipoic acid might delay the…
Antioxidative properties of α-lipoic acid (LA) are widely investigated in different in vivo and in vitro models. The aim of this study was to examine whether LA attenuates oxidative stress…
