Glen Campbell Alzheimer’s Disease, Memento, And You – Famed Country Music Singer Glen Campbell has Alzheimer’s Disease, it was announced today. The sad news was communicated during an exclusive interview with People Magazine and with his wife Kim by his side. Campbell told People Magazine that he wanted fans to be aware of his condition and that he plans a farewell tour around America. What a sad bit of news, but here’s praying for Mr Campbell. Even if you’re not a fan of country music, at least give some of his works an ear, particularly my favorite “Rhinestone Cowboy.” And let’s hope we find a cure for Alzheimer’s Disease. On that note, Alzheimer’s is more than just “memory loss,” and People Magazine’s webpage has a link to the 25 symptoms that go with it.

Marijuana/Cannabis memory loss & Alzheimer’s

st0ckman.blogspot.com The active ingredient in marijuana may stall decline from Alzheimer’s disease, research suggests. Scientists showed a synthetic version of the compound may reduce inflammation associated with Alzheimer’s and thus help to prevent mental decline. They hope the cannabinoid may be used to developed new drug therapies. The research, by Madrid’s Complutense University and the Cajal Institute, is published in the Journal of Neuroscience. We would warn the public against taking marijuana as a way of preventing Alzheimer’s Dr Susanne Sorensen The scientists first compared the brain tissue of patients who died from Alzheimer’s disease with that of healthy people who had died at a similar age. They looked closely at brain cell receptors to which cannabinoids bind, allowing their effects to be felt. They also studied structures called microglia, which activate the brain’s immune response. Microglia collect near the plaque deposits associated with Alzheimer’s disease and, when active, cause inflammation. The researchers found a dramatically reduced functioning of cannabinoid receptors in diseased brain tissue. This was an indication that patients had lost the capacity to experience cannabinoids’ protective effects. The next step was to test the effect of cannabinoids on rats injected with the amyloid protein that forms Alzheimer’s plaques. Those animals who were also given a dose of a cannabinoid performed much better in tests of their mental functioning. The
