Alzheimer’s discovery brings hope

Alzheimer-Disease-TreatmentA treatment for the Alzheimer's disease, which wastes the human brain, has finally been declared to have been found by doctors who claim that they will be out with the remedy soon within just five years' time. This declaration brings hope amongst many.

However, it just a prospect still as the researchers at Sydney University are holding out to the 250,000 Australians who have been affected by the Alzheimer's, which is Australia's most common form of dementia.

The scientists at the Sydney University's Brain and Mind Researcher Institute claim that the mixing of two proteins in a healthy brain cell is the original cause of the Alzheimer's disease.

The research team has experimented with mice, and the mixing of the proteins was ceased with the introduction of other proteins into the brains cells through injections.

This demonstration of prevention of the development of Alzheimer's disease is the first of its kind and has never been conducted before.  Following step of the research is to develop complexes which will be easier to administer, either orally or intravenously.

A treatment is being anticipated within the next five years with the biology of the disease itself being the target and not the symptoms.
