商品描述
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the role of plant-based medicines, or phytomedicine, in the prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. It delves into how various phytochemicals can modulate key biological pathways involved in diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other neurodegenerative conditions. The chapters highlight the importance of phytopharmacological agents, such as polyphenols, curcumin, and resveratrol, in targeting oxidative stress, protein aggregation, and inflammation. Later, a few chapters discuss how polyphenols help protect mitochondria, and some explore curcumin's role in regulating the mTOR and autophagy pathways. This book is an excellent resource for researchers in neuroscience, pharmacology, and natural medicine, as well as practitioners seeking holistic approaches to neurological health.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書全面探討植物性藥物或植物醫學（phytomedicine）在預防和治療神經退行性疾病中的角色。它深入研究各種植物化學物質如何調節與阿茲海默症（Alzheimer's）、帕金森症（Parkinson's）及其他神經退行性疾病相關的關鍵生物途徑。各章節強調植物藥理學劑（phytopharmacological agents）的重要性，例如多酚（polyphenols）、薑黃素（curcumin）和白藜蘆醇（resveratrol），這些物質在針對氧化壓力、蛋白質聚集和發炎方面的作用。隨後，幾個章節討論多酚如何幫助保護線粒體，還有一些章節探討薑黃素在調節mTOR和自噬（autophagy）途徑中的角色。本書是神經科學、藥理學和自然醫學研究人員的優秀資源，同時也適合尋求整體健康方法的實踐者。
作者簡介
Dr. Hagera Dilnashin is a post-doctoral fellow at IIT Roorkee and an accomplished researcher in neurodegenerative disorders, with a focus on Parkinson's disease.
