Abstract
Active and passive immunization against fibrillar β-amyloid of various mice models of Alzheimers disease leads to the disaggregation and inhibition of plaque formation. Preliminary results showing improved behaviour and memory function obtained after administration of anti-β-amyloid vaccines to transgenic mice encourage these and related approaches for testing in the treatment and prevention of Alzheimers disease.

Biodiversity, Ethnopharmacology, Biotechnology, Bioclimatology and Scientific Education Applied to Toxicology and One Health
Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) are represented by a group of distinct illnesses that affect the most vulnerable segment of the population, negatively impacting the Economy and Public Health. For example, like snakebite, leishmaniasis disproportionately affects vulnerable populations in tropical and subtropical regions. The search for safe drugs against various diseases ...read more
Bioprospecting of Natural Products as Sources of New Multitarget Therapies
According to the Convention on Biological Diversity, bioprospecting is the exploration of biodiversity and indigenous knowledge to develop commercially valuable products for pharmaceutical and other applications. Bioprospecting involves searching for useful organic compounds in plants, fungi, marine organisms, and microorganisms. Natural products traditionally constituted the primary source of more than ...read more
