The biological process of neurogenesis that consists of differentiation of neural stem cells (NSC) into neurons, occurs both in embryonic and adult phases. Therefore, NSC are being proposed as interesting tools for nervous system tissue regeneration and restoration of physiological conditions, as well as models for elucidation of pathophysiological development of neurological diseases. Pr…
Maqui (Aristotelia chilensis) is a big business for the export of its fruit, of great antioxidant properties, which has conquered the agri-food industry. Maqui fruit and leaves have shown an important range of biological actions, including antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and analgesic, leading to obtain products as complementary therapeutic agents in the treatment of various chronic and d…
Stem cells (SC) are unspecialized cells withself renewal capacity and with the ability to originate different cell types | of the body. In recent years, SC nave emerged as a significant therapeutic promise for several diseases. Furthermore, cancer stem cells (CSC ) have been implicated in initiation and growth of tumors, resistance to conventional therapies and, consequently, in recurrenc…

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease often characterized by the accumulation of amyloid beta (A²) plaques and / or neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. AD patients present symptoms that include memory loss, language deficits and motor control impairment, often associated with psychiatric symptoms, such as depression and anxiety. A² plaques and neurofibrillary tangles o…
The Bipolar Disorder (BD) represents an important risk factor for the development of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Recently, the neurobiological factors involved in this comorbidity were reviewed by our group, and the mechanisms of neuroinflammation, mitocondrial disfunction, excitotoxicity and compromised neurogenesis are some of those factors. Changes in the distribution of neuronal and gli…

Currently, Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the most prevalent form of dementia, characterized by memory loss, changes in personality and impaired reasoning. Like other neurodegenerative diseases, AD presents a major brain inflammation process at the beginning of its development. This neuroinflammation is known to be triggered by the hyperactivation of glial cells. The persistence of this proc…

Neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases are characterized by the selective and progressive loss of neurons in the brain. There are no treatments to cure such devastating diseases. Current therapies only focus on treatment the symptoms in an attempt to improve the patient's quality of life. The neural stem cells replacement therapy is believed to be one of …
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the main motor neuron disease affecting more than 400,000 people worldwide with mortality rate of 92%. There is no cure for ALS and available treatments can only extend the lifespan of the patients in 3 months. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are immunomodulators that regulate cellular processes by either cell-cell contact or their paracrine effect. MS…
Glioblastoma (GBM) stem-like cells (GSCs) represent a subpopulation of intratumoral undifferentiated cells, which would be able to reinitiate tumorigenesis after treatment and recapitulate the heterogeneity of the original tumor. Similar to physiological neural stem cells, GSCs are postulated to self-renewal and differentiate into progenitors cells, which in turn gradually differentiate i…
