This review explores using nanotechnology to enhance the delivery of neuroprotective phytochemicals from medicinal plants for Alzheimer's disease (AD), addressing issues of bioavailability, solubility, and blood-brain barrier penetration, and highlights the potential of nanocarriers to revolutionize neuroprotective drug delivery and improve patient outcomes.
This study developed a novel mouse model with tamoxifen-inducible knockout of the Gnpat gene, enabling late-onset plasmalogen deficiency to investigate its role in Alzheimer's disease. The model exhibited significant plasmalogen reduction and associated behavioral and nerve function changes, providing a valuable tool for future research on plasmalogen involvement in neurodegeneration and potential therapies.

In November, 197 countries plus the European Union will convene in Baku, Azerbaijan for the 29th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change or COP29.  COP29 will bring together world leaders to assess global efforts to advance the Paris Agreement and limit global warming to 1.5°C.
