2. Posterior cortical atrophy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cortical_atrophy

   Posterior cortical atrophy (PCA), also called Benson's syndrome, is a rare form of dementia which is considered a visual variant or an atypical variant of Alzheimer's disease (AD). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The disease causes atrophy of the posterior part of the cerebral cortex , resulting in the progressive disruption of complex visual processing . [ 4 ]

3. 3-Indolepropionic acid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-indolepropionic_acid

   3-Indolepropionic acid (IPA), or indole-3-propionic acid, has been studied for its therapeutic value in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.As of 2022 [3] IPA shows potential in the treatment of this disease, though the therapeutic effect of IPA depends on dose and time of therapy initiation.

4. HEPPS (buffer) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HEPPS_(buffer)

   HEPPS (EPPS) is a buffering agent used in biology and biochemistry.The pKa of HEPPS is 8.00. It is ones of Good's buffers. [1]Research on mice with Alzheimer's disease-like amyloid beta plaques has shown that HEPPS can cause the plaques to break up, reversing some of the symptoms in the mice.

5. Amyloid beta - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amyloid_beta

   The other protein implicated in Alzheimer's disease, tau protein, also forms such prion-like misfolded oligomers, and there is some evidence that misfolded Aβ can induce tau to misfold. [6] [7] A study has suggested that APP and its amyloid potential is of ancient origins, dating as far back as early deuterostomes. [8]

6. Biochemistry of Alzheimer's disease - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemistry_of_Alzheimer's...

   The biochemistry of Alzheimer's disease, the most common cause of dementia, is not yet very well understood. Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been identified as a proteopathy : a protein misfolding disease due to the accumulation of abnormally folded amyloid beta (Aβ) protein in the brain . [ 1 ]

7. Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_dissociation_constant

   pKa values for acetic, chloroacetic, dichloroacetic and trichloroacetic acids. Inductive effects and mesomeric effects affect the pK a values. A simple example is provided by the effect of replacing the hydrogen atoms in acetic acid by the more electronegative chlorine atom.
