Problems solved by technology

However, the extent to which anticholinesterase inhibitors and memantine affect AD produced only a temporary effect on AD symptoms and did not appear to alter the etiology of the disease
It is believed that no treatment in use today has been shown to prevent, halt or reverse this neurodegenerative process

Embodiment 1

[0117] Example 1: Evaluation of Therapy in Tg2576 Mice

Embodiment 1a

[0118] Example 1a: Cognitive Assessment

[0119] We reasoned that a combination therapy comprising multiple antioxidants and vitamins would appear to be most effective in the treatment of human AD. To support this inference, we tested the following nutrient combinations in two well-established and used AD mouse models:

[0120] Table 4: Concentrations of Joint Mixture Components vs. Low and High Concentration Diets Added to AIN-17 Rodent Diets

[0121]

[0122] As noted above, the high strength diet and low strength diet combination mixtures were prepared to provide about 660 and about 220 mg combination mixture per 1 kg rodent diet, respectively. Green Tea Extract, Bioperine with folic acid and B vitamins 12 The sources provide the respective active ingredient percentages separately. Green tea provides 50% EGCG; Bioperine Provides 98% piperine; folic acid source provides 10% folic acid; and vitamin B 12 Source Provides 1% B Vitamins 12 . Factoring these percentag...

Embodiment 2

[0131] Example 2: Evaluation of Therapy in 3xTg-AD Mice

[0132] Given these extremely promising results, we attempted to validate a diet containing the combination mixture by testing a high-concentration diet in a second AD mouse model (3xTg-AD mouse model). 3xTg-AD mice progressively develop Aβ and tauopathies with time- and region-specific features that closely mimic their occurrence in human AD brains. Despite equal expression of human APP and human tau transgenes, Aβ deposition precedes tangle lesions. Extracellular Aβ deposits manifested in the cortex by 6 months of age, and by 12 months, Thioflavin S-positive and Congo red-positive. At ~6 months of age, tau translocates to the dendritic compartment of the cell body, reactivity with conformation-specific antibodies (such as the mouse monoclonal antibody MC-1) is evident by 10 months, and shortly thereafter at approximately 10 months. Immunoreactivity for phospho-specific tau markers was evident at -12 months of age. T...

Abstract

Preparations for the prevention and treatment of neurological disorders and cognitive deficits, i.e. Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, mild cognitive impairment and other types of dementia, comprising a therapeutically effective amount curcumin, piperine, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), and one of N-acetylcysteine, benfotiamine, and alpha-lipoic acid or more. This association points to some or all of the pathways that can lead to nervous system deficits, degeneration and disease.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to novel agents for reducing the phosphorylation of tau protein or the presence of β-amyloid plaques, thereby preventing and treating cognitive and neurological diseases, such as Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Other neurological diseases that may be treated in accordance with the present invention include amyotrophic lateral sclerosis; mild cognitive impairment; frontotemporal dementia, such as that associated with chromosome 17-linked Parkinson's neurological dysfunction; frontotemporal lobar degeneration, also known as Pick's disease; progressive supranuclear palsy; encephalomyelitis; multiple sclerosis; or corticobasal degeneration; Parkinson's disease; and other types of dementia. The formulation comprises, for example, a therapeutically effective amount of the following combination: curcumin, piperine, epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), and N-acetylcysteine, phenyl One or more of benfotiamine and α-lipoic acid. This associ...
