According to recent research by researchers at the University of Tehran Biochemical and Biophysics Research Center, two natural compounds of Alpha-Asarone and Beta-Caryophyllnene, which can be obtained from plant and lemon juice extracts, can be prevented.
This study, in the form of a doctoral dissertation by Afrooz Anbaraki, a doctoral student of biochemistry at the center, under the guidance of Dr. Aref Sayed Arabic, titled “The Effect of Alpha-Asaron and Beta-Caryophiline and on Tau Protein Fibrillation using Molecular Docking and Laboratory Methods”, can be reduced in protein. Patients in Alzheimer’s.
“In recent years, Alzheimer’s disease has become a major global challenge and the number of people with it is constantly increasing,” said Dr. Sayed Arab. By oversight, brain function leads to memory, learning and speech disorder, and in advanced stages it can pose a serious risks to people’s lives. “There has been a lot of research to find effective treatment for the disease, but so far no definitive results have been achieved.”
He pointed to the causes of the disease and said, “One of the main causes of the disease is the accumulation of a protein called tau in the brain’s nerve cells and one way to treat the disease is to prevent the accumulation of this protein in nerve cells.”
“These compounds can be used by the patient or aromatherapy, which is an effective way to treat many diseases,” said the Associate Professor of Biochemical Research Center on how to use natural compounds.
“The present study has shown the potential of alpha-Asaron and beta-Kariogifin compounds in Alzheimer’s treatment,” he said. “However, the actual use of these compounds in Alzheimer’s treatment process requires further research and studies.”
The results of this study titled The Novel Anti-Fibrillary Effects of Volatile Compounds α-Asarone and β-Caryophyllene on Tau Protein: Towers Promising therapeutic Agents for Alzheimer’s Disease in an article in the International Journal of Biologal Macromolecules (here) with an impact coefficient of 1.2.
