Fullerenes C60, antiamyloid action, the brain, and cognitive processes

A short review of investigations along a new line: the antiamyloid action of fullerenes C 60 and correction of disturbed cognitive processes is presented. The prospects for the development of drugs based on fullerenes acting on the key molecular mechanisms at the early stage of Alzheimer’s disease a...

Description
Summary:A short review of investigations along a new line: the antiamyloid action of fullerenes C 60 and correction of disturbed cognitive processes is presented. The prospects for the development of drugs based on fullerenes acting on the key molecular mechanisms at the early stage of Alzheimer’s disease are discussed.
