Alzheimer's Disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia that initially targets memory and progressively destroys the mind. Almost 1 out of 5 elderly subjects suffer from any form of dementia.

Mechanisms of Action

Phosphatidylserine modifies glucose metabolism in the brain, catecholamine and acetylcholine release, NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartic acid) receptor density (Important for Memory) and function, acetylcholine receptor density which are co-related to the behavioral changes.

Phosphatidylserine (PS)

1. Phosphatidylserine increases cholinergic function in multiple ways. First, it enhances the activity of Na+,K+-ATPase, which helps maintain membrane potential.
2. It increases Ca2+ uptake into K+-depolarized corticol synaptosomes, and this is an important event in neurotransmitter release
3. Phosphatidylserine affects exocytosis of neurotransmitters by is an important phospholipid that makes u 1agocyte / Tissue cells Replenishment signals . the bash sincera cornenents of the a rego fang ogenesis and fibrosis) interacting with membrane-binding proteins
4. Improves memory by increasing the turnover of dopamine and/or cell-to-cell communication and transfer of Macrophage 5. Phosphatidylserine mediates a variety of processes related to synaptic Immature Meneetic plasticity, information storage, and glutamatergic transmission.
