147 - Treatments targeting neuroprotection, synaptic activity & neurotransmitter release in Alzheimer's Disease: March 2021

Anusha will be summarizing for you papers published in March of 2021 that address neuronal and synaptic health in models of Alzheimer’s disease. That’s not all! We are also going to explore the topic of restoring neurotransmitter balance. So if for instance, you’re looking for research on acetylcholinesterase inhibition, this episode is for you!

Targeting neuro/synaptic protection with peptides (2.29) 

Using existing drugs (9.42) 

Disease mechanisms (17.26) 

Targeting acetylcholine (21.03) 

Targeting GABA (26.10)

We would like to thank our amazing team for all of the work that goes into every episode of AMiNDR. Today's episode was scripted and hosted by Anusha Kamesh, reviewed by Glory Nasseri, and edited by Anusha Kamesh. The bibliography was created by Satish Kumar and the wordcloud was generated by Sarah Louadi (www.wordart.com). Big thanks to the sorting team for sorting all the papers published in March into themes for our episodes, and to our management team, which includes Sarah Louadi, Ellen Koch, Naila Kuhlmann, Elyn Rowe, Anusha Kamesh, and Jacques Ferreira, for keeping everything running smoothly.

Our music is from "Journey of a Neurotransmitter" by musician and fellow neuroscientist Anusha Kamesh; you can find the original piece and her other music on soundcloud under Anusha Kamesh or on her YouTube channel, AKMusic.

If you are interested in joining the team, send us your CV by email. We are specifically looking for help with sorting abstracts by topic, abstract summaries and hosting, creating bibliographies, and promotions. However, if you are interested in helping in other ways, don't hesitate to apply anyways.
