Pesquisadores identificam alteracoes vasculares no cerebro ligadas a doenca de Alzheimer
A barreira hematoencefalica -- uma rede de vasos sanguineos e tecidos que nutre e protege o cerebro de substancias nocivas que circulam no sangue -- e interrompida na doenca de Alzheimer. No momento, pesquisadores e colaboradores da Mayo Clinic descobriram assinaturas moleculares unicas de disfuncao da barreira hematoencefalica que poderiam apontar para novas formas de se diagnosticar e tratar a doenca. Os resultados dessa descoberta estao publicados na Nature Communications.

يحدد الباحثون التغيرات الوعائية في الدماغ المرتبطة بمرض الزهايمر
جاكسونفيل، فلوريدا -- الحاجز الدموي الدماغي -- هو شبكة من الأوعية الدموية والأنسجة التي تغذي الدماغ وتحميها من المواد التي قد تسبب الضرر للدماغ في الدم - للخلل ويتعطّل عند الإصابة بمرض الزهايمر. وقد كشف باحثون في مايو كلينك مؤخرًا بالتعاون مع زملاء من جهات أخرى عن بصمات جزيئية فريدة لخلل الحاجز الدموي الدماغي، مما قد ييسر سبلاً جديدة لتشخيص وعلاج مرض الزهايمر. وقد نُشرت النتائج التي توصلوا إليها في مجلة ناتشور كوميونيكاشن.
