An elucidation of the mechanisms of brain iron homeostasis, as outlined in figure 1, will help our understanding of AD especially since iron binds to Ap-peptide and enhances beta-amyloid toxicity [35-38]. Excess iron accumulation is a consistent observation in the AD brain. As discussed above, patients with hemochromatosis are at risk developing AD at an earlier age [2]. Brain autopsy samples from AD patients have elevated levels of ferritin iron, particularly in the neurons of the basal ganglia [39] and most amyloid plaques contain iron and ferritin-rich cells [40]. Clinically there is a reported decrease in the rate of decline in AD patients who were treated with the intramuscular iron chelator, desferrioxamine [41]. Iron enhances cleavage of the Ap-peptide domain of APP by the metalloprotease alpha secretase [42, 43]. Part of the protective effect of the major cleavage product of APP, APP(s), may derive from its capacity to scavange metals to diminish metal-catalyzed oxidative stress to neuronal cells [44]. APP is, itself, a metalloprotein [4]. [Pg.218]

While melatonin is not currently being used to treat these conditions, research is currently underway investigating its role in preventing Alzheimer s disease. A study published in Biochemistry in 2001 showed that melatonin can inhibit the development of amyloid beta, a toxic substance that has been linked to the development of Alzheimer s. Other studies suggest that melatonin may be helpful in reducing the side effects caused by medications that are used to treat schizophrenia. [Pg.303]

In conclusion, lithium is a moderate inhibitor of GSK-3, which in pre-clinical studies has been shown to influence pathophysiological mechanisms of Alzheimer s disease, i.e. both decreasing the hyperphosphorylation of tau and reducing the metabolism of beta amyloid. However, the action of lithium is complicated by the diverse actions associated with this compound. Due to the toxic effects associated with long-term use of lithium and therapeutically higher concentrations to decrease GSK-3 activity, it may not be considered as a prime candidate for treatment of Alzheimer s disease. [Pg.149]

In summary, AR-A014418 is a potent and specific GSK-3 inhibitor capable of intervening with both tau phosphorylation and beta-amyloid-induced toxicity. AR-A014418 is also the only published specific GSK-3 inhibitor with documented in vivo efficacy consistent with an Alzheimer s disease modifying mode of action. Thus, AR-A014418 represents an important research tool to study the therapeutic potential of GSK-3 inhibition in neurological disease. [Pg.159]

McGeer and Rogers are willing to concede that p-amyloid can kill neurons directly, but they think that most of the damage is caused by the peptide s immunological effects, specifically, its ability to activate the complement cascade. Their unpublished results show that when immune factors are present, the toxicity of beta-amyloid jumps tremendously, says Rogers. [Pg.151]
