Neurogenesis

rather than just manage their symptoms? Current treatments of ischemic stroke patients are simply inadequate and out dated. New treatments and therapy should utilize Niaspan treatment along with scientific principles such as neuroplasticity and neurogenesis. These foundations are what will hopefully restructure our current treatments and procedures along with effectively restoring as close to normal physical and cognitive abilities of ischemic stroke patients. Paragraph 1 Niaspan is a viable treatment

(Points: 4)   |   | Neurons are:1. highly specialized cells that produce myelin.2. highly specialized cells that receive and transmit information from one area of the body to another

Cancer is a disease of the body’s cells. It occurs when abnormal cells grow in uncontrolled way, which can damage and invade surrounding tissue and spread to other parts of the body. When cancer cells are confined to one area and do not spread, they are referred to as benign and are not dangerous. However, if the cells have the ability to spread to surrounding areas and different parts of the body, they are referred to as malignant or commonly known as cancer (Cancer Council Australia, 2016, “What

glucocorticoids. However, stress hormones, and glucocorticoids, in particular, contribute to impairment of cognitive function and promote damage to brain structures such as the hippocampus through decreased neurogenesis (McEwen et al., 1995). (Although impairments in hippocampal neurogenesis have not yet provided functional mechanism for the pathophysiology of depression, this phenomenon gained an enormous interest among researchers

Neurons are highly polarized cells with specific morphology linked to their func-tional role. The long, single axon, multiple short dendrites and the tiny neurites that decorate their surface collectively give the neuron its distinctive shape. These regions of the neuron serve as sub-cellular compartments with local regulation that accounts for important neural phenomena like learning and memory formation. The dynamic nature of neuronal morphology makes it one of the aspects of neuronal function

1) Fill in the pertinent information with regard to Parkinson’s Disease: Demographics (include any information on prevalence rates, age of onset, populations at risk): According to the text, Parkinson’s Disease is observed in 1% of the people over the age of 65. It seems safe to say that while this disease is a rare occurrence, people over the age of 65 are at a higher risk than other people. Symptoms: Symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease include but are not limited to: muscular rigidity, slowness

In the United States, obesity is currently one of the largest issues in our society. Sugary sodas, fatty foods, and lack of exercise are the main causes of this issue. Not only does obesity affect adults, but it affects young children as well. In 2012, it was reported that two-thirds of adults in the United States are considered overweight or obese. It was also reported that 31.8% of children and teenagers in the United States are considered overweight or obese as well. Young children are naturally

Thus, it was hypothesized that exercise can increase brain neurogenesis and hence, decrease depressive symptoms (5). Once there are many physiological processes in the body when someone practices exercise, its reasonable to evaluate whether physical exercises can be an important alternative to treat depression cases

The brain continues to grow and rapidly develops in three stages known as Neurogenesis, Synaptogensis, and synaptic pruning. Neurogenesis describes the process of rapid division within the nervous system to create functional regions of the brain where most of the process is complete before birth while some regions continue to form after birth such as hippocampal

The purpose of this paper is to conduct library research on early childhood trauma and its effects on brain development. This paper will discuss the consequences of early childhood trauma, specifically the manner in which it impacts brain development. Included will be a discussion of What tends to happen to people who experience early childhood trauma. Within the paper will be a description of the consequences of this type of trauma for the urban individual, family, community, or culture. This paper
