A research published in the journal of Neuroscience reveals that a pill known as MW151, has the potential to cure multiple neurological conditions,including Alzheimer's disease, stroke and multiple sclerosis.The drug although still in early clinical trials,was able to stop full blown Alzheimer from developing in Mice when given early.The study author Linda Van-Eldik who is the director at University of Kentucky Sandra-Brown center for ageing said "the drug protected against damage associated with learning and impaired memory.Giving the drug before Alzheimer's memory changes are at a late stage may be a future approach to therapy.
Researchers believe Alzheimer's disease is caused in part by inflammation in the brain. MW151 works by blocking the production of signaling molecules called pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can damage the immune system when they are too abundant.
