"Parkinson's Disease Dementia" featuring Neurologist, Dr. Dee Silver, discusses how Parkinson's patients are 4 to 6 times more likely to develop some cognitive impairment. Up to 1 million people in the US are affected by IPD. After patients have had the disease 8 to 10 years, they have about an 80% chance of developing cognitive impairment. Dr. Silver talks about a new drug (Excelon) that is shown to hold off these impairments. Series: "MDTV (Medical Doctor Television) " [12/2007] [Health and Medicine] [Show ID: 13686]

What is alzheimer's disease? alzheimer's society dementia brain video

www.alzheimers.org.uk This film looks at what happens to a brain with Alzheimer's disease, including the development of amyloid plaques and tau tangles. Alzheimer's disease is the most common form of dementia. TRANSCRIPT Alzheimer's disease affects over 400000 people in the UK. It is the most common cause of dementia, and also the best understood. The hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease are the formation of plaques and tangles in the brain. These structures are made up from two key proteins, amyloid and tau. Amyloid is produced when a much larger protein, the amyloid precursor protein, is degraded. In healthy cells amyloid is removed. However, during Alzheimer's disease the amyloid accumulates on the outside of nerve cells forming plaques. Scientists think that amyloid is toxic to cells. The second protein involved in Alzheimer's disease is called tau. In healthy cells tau is an important part of the internal cell network, helping to transport nutrients around the cell. However, during Alzheimer's disease an abnormal version of tau is produced. This abnormal tau does not function correctly. It forms tangles inside the cells, disrupting the transport network and effectively strangling the cell. The current treatments for Alzheimer's disease are designed to improve communication between cells. However, they can only slow the progression of the disease. Scientists hope that a future drug will target amyloid or tau and stop the disease altogether." Please watch our other videos ...

What is dementia? - alzheimer's society dementia brain video

www.alzheimers.org.uk This film explains and defines what dementia is, and how it affects the brain. TRANSCRIPT "Dementia affects over 750000 people in the UK. It is not a disease in its own right and it is not a natural part of ageing. It is an umbrella term that describes a large group of symptoms that are caused by diseases that affect the brain, such as Alzheimer's disease. Dementia is caused by a loss of nerve cells in the brain. It is a progressive condition, meaning that it gradually gets worse. This is because when a nerve cell dies it cannot usually be replaced. As more and more cells die the brain starts to shrink. This is known as brain atrophy, which can sometimes be seen in a brain scan of someone in the later stages of dementia. Common symptoms of dementia include memory loss, impaired cognition and loss of physical coordination. However, the symptoms depend on the area of the brain that is affected. For example, if nerve cells in the temporal lobe start to die, that person may start to have difficulties in their language, while nerve cell death in the occipital lobe, at the back of the brain, can cause problems with vision. Sadly there is currently no cure for dementia and many of the diseases that cause it are terminal. The cerebellum and brain stem control our basic life functions. If cells die in these areas, the body will start to shut down." Please watch our other videos to see how brain cells function, hear what dementia is, and to hear more about ...

Dementia's varying impacts on memory and emotion

The two most common forms of dementia in people under the age of 70 are Alzheimer's disease and frontotemporal dementia. The Alzheimer's disease patient doesn't remember what he had for breakfast. The frontotemporal dementia patient behaves abnormally -- she's inappropriately familiar with people, is indifferent to questions and speaks rudely. The explanation for the differences can be seen under the microscope. memory.ucsf.edu UCSF Memory and Aging Center .

Rarer causes of dementia - alzheimer's society dementia brain video

www.alzheimers.org.uk This film looks at some of the rarer causes of dementia, including Down's syndrome and Korsakoff's syndrome. TRANSCRIPT "There are a number of rarer diseases and syndromes that cause dementia. People with Down's Syndrome are particularly at risk of developing dementia, and they are particularly likely to develop Alzheimer's disease early in life. This is because some of the genes that are linked to Alzheimer's are found on chromosome 21. People with Down's Syndrome have an extra copy of this chromosome and therefore an extra copy of the Alzheimer's gene. Dementia can also be caused by a condition called Binswanger's disease, which is a rare type of vascular dementia. Damage to blood vessels very deep in the brain causes problems with thinking and memory. Dementia also sometimes develops in people with HIV, Huntington's disease and Korsakoff's Syndrome, which is due to excessive alcohol consumption. The biology of these dementias is very poorly understood and for most cases treatment is very limited."

What is fronto temporal dementia? alzheimer's society dementia brain video

www.alzheimers.org.uk This film looks at fronto-temporal dementia - a term that describes a range of conditions that affect the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. This is a fairly rare form of dementia, which often affects younger people. TRANSCRIPT "Fronto-temporal dementia covers a range of conditions that affect the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. These areas control behaviour, emotional responses and language. This means that people with this type of dementia often experience changes in personality and mood, and struggle with language, for example, in finding the right word. This is a fairly rare form of dementia, which is more likely to affect younger people. One of the diseases that causes fronto-temporal dementia includes Pick's disease. Pick's disease occurs when a protein called tau, which is also involved in Alzheimer's disease, starts to accumulate in nerve cells. It forms spherical 'blobs' of protein which are thought to be linked to nerve cell death. Unlike most other causes of dementia, there is often a strong family link with fronto-temporal dementia. Scientists have identified genes that are linked to fronto-temporal dementia but our understanding of it is still very limited."

www.alzheimers.org.uk This film looks at dementia with lewy bodies. Dementia with lewy bodies affects about 4% of people with dementia. Lewy bodies are tiny spherical deposits of protein that develop inside nerve cells. TRANSCRIPT "Dementia with Lewy bodies affects around 4% of people with dementia. It is closely related to both Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Lewy bodies are tiny, spherical deposits of protein that develop inside nerve cells. They prevent the cells from communicating properly by disrupting the important chemical messengers between cells. As yet we don't know how or why Lewy bodies form. Lewy body dementia can affect any part of the brain, leading to many different symptoms. This type of dementia shares many symptoms with Alzheimer's disease.

Memory loss, personality changes, a shrinking ability to do daily tasks. It's not easy to watch a loved one suffer from dementia. It's also not easy at times for doctors to know exactly what kind of dementia a person may have. That's because there's not been a test that can differentiate between, say, Alzheimer's disease and Lewy Body Dementia. Now, researchers at Mayo Clinic have developed a way to look at the living brain and more accurately tell what type of dementia a person has. And this may help get patients on the right treatment.
