Alzheimer’s Disease

Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting regions in the brain responsible for memory and thinking function. It is a severe condition of dementia mainly caused by premature death or damage of the brain cells where abnormality in cognition is seen in patients. The patient goes through steady memory loss and an inability to think and behave properly.

Since AD affects the brain cells that are responsible for cognitive functions, the initial symptoms include forgetfulness, lack of practical thinking, and judgmental skills. Apart from these, AD also leads to personality changes, and several psychological symptoms are also observed in patients in later stages. These are –

• Inability to remember what time or day it is.
• Difficulty in performing simple daily tasks like eating, walking, taking a shower, etc
• Patients tend to forget places or directions that they knew well
• Have problems learning and remembering new things
• Depression and mood swings
  Changes in sleeping patterns
• Personality and behavioral changes
  Misplacing things and forgetting immediately
• Inability to make simple calculations and decisions

The cause of Alzheimer’s disease is not yet fully understood and research and studies are still ongoing to determine the exact cause of developing Alzheimer’s disease. However, according to many doctors, genetics and age factors are two primary reasons for the onset of this neurodegenerative condition.

With age, the brain cells of every individual either die or get damaged but in Alzheimer’s condition, the cells die faster much before the expected age. Genetic changes are considered responsible for the premature death of brain cells. Other triggers for this neurological disorder are depression history, severe head injuries, and ecological elements influencing the cerebrum for a longer span.

Alzheimer’s can be of two types depending on the onset of symptoms. Early onset Alzheimer’s is very uncommon and found in younger individuals or those under the age of 65 years. This variant is seen in patients suffering from Down syndrome and patients experience major changes in cognitive function.  Defective DNA, precisely chromosome 14, is associated with this variant as a prime cause.

Another type is Late-onset Alzheimer’s which is the most popular affecting millions of elderly people above the age of 65 worldwide. As discussed, the causes appear to be hereditary or random alterations in the DNA.

For diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disorder, a mental health assessment needs to be performed. A series of tests are conducted to assess memory impairment, judging and thinking skills, behavior changes, and other mental functions.

The tests include cognitive blood tests,  electroencephalogram or EEG, CT scan and MRI of the head, PET brain imaging, neuropsychological tests, and other neurological examinations to confirm the stage of Alzheimer’s disease.

These physical examinations will aid in diagnosing whether you have Alzheimer’s or not. After confirming the disease, if you choose to receive stem cell treatment at our institute you will be required to submit an online application form. In this form, you have to include every single detail about yourself starting from age, gender, height, weight, current symptoms of Alzheimer’s, past ailments and treatments undergone, allergies, and other details. All this information will help our qualified and experienced medical professionals evaluate and determine your eligibility for stem cell treatment for Alzheimer’s disease at our institute.

By utilizing the potential of stem cells, the progression of Alzheimer’s condition can be regressed or slowed down because these cells promote the repair of damaged tissues and increase blood flow to the brain. For a better quality of life, free from the sufferings of Alzheimer’s, consider receiving stem cell therapy at Life Altering Stem Cell Therapy Institute –

• Stem cells have the capability to form new and healthy neurons, stimulating the natural healing process in the affected parts of the brain (Lobes of areas responsible for memory, judgment, intelligence, behavior, and language).

• Research also shows that mesenchymal stem cells have the potential to decrease plaque formation (Amyloid-beta) which is one of the triggers for Alzheimer’s disorder.
• Human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HUCT-MSCs) stimulate neuronal cell differentiation and neurogenesis which aid in the quick recovery of patients from this condition.
• Stem cells protect the brain from memory deficits, reduce forgetfulness, and rescue spatial learning.
• Regulates the production of neuroprotective cytokines which would decrease inflammation and lower proinflammatory cytokines.
• Administration of stem cells on the affected sites supports functional recovery by inducing the regenerative and survival capacities of host neurons by secreting trophic factors.
• HUCT-MSCs have very high differentiation potential and can differentiate into a large variety of neuro-regulatory molecules and cells. They are, therefore, considered ideal for treating Alzheimer’s disease.
• HUCT-MSCs evade cell rejection because they are hypo-immunogenic.
• These cells stimulate paracrine activities i.e. cell-to-cell communication which improves signaling and cognitive functions.
• The benefits of stem cell treatment for Alzheimer’s syndrome are long-lasting and patients are seen to be improving from the condition and alleviating symptoms.
• Stem cell therapy is a scientifically proven effective non-invasive treatment that restores damaged neurons through a minimally-invasive administration procedure.

In the process of stem cell therapy, human umbilical cord tissue-derived stem cells are administered intravenously so that they reach directly into the brain by crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The BBB is a protective covering of tissues and blood vessels shielding the brain from harmful substances.

The treatment protocol is carefully planned by our stem cell specialists, who have more than 15 years of experience in this field. Our specially developed protocol ensures that stem cells directly target the affected cells in the brain to promote repair and healing naturally.

For us, each patient’s case is unique and needs personalized treatment protocol based on his or her current health condition. We strive to help him or her attain optimal wellness and good health through our cutting-edge treatment. The plan is precisely determined as per the age, weight, stage of the disease, allergies, and pre-existing conditions (if any) of the patient. The number of stem cells to be administered and the course of the treatment will be conveyed to the patient by our medical team after you are deemed fit for the therapy.

Stem cell therapy for Alzheimer’s disease involves systemic administration of human umbilical cord tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (HUCT-MSCs) into the body to recover degenerating neurons and improve the memory of patients. Alzheimer’s disease is the degeneration or death of brain cells resulting in cognitive decline and memory loss in patients. Inflammatory mediators activate mesenchymal stem cells and result in the release of paracrine factors into the bloodstream. These anti-inflammatory molecules reach the site of injury in the brain and reduce neuroinflammation. Cellular healing using stem cells prevents abnormal protein degradation and neurofibrillary tangles and enhances cognitive function in AD patients.

Administration of fresh mesenchymal stem cells extracted from the human umbilical cord (Wharton’s Jelly) promises to repair damaged brain cells or neurons and encourages restoration and supply of oxygen-rich blood flow into the brain. The stem cells have high immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and neurotropic properties which prevent cell death and also encourage the growth of fresh blood vessels.

Besides providing top-notch quality treatment, Life Altering Stem Cell Therapy Institute provides the best hospitality experience to all patients within the homely atmosphere of our treatment facility. After receiving our therapies, the patients are expected to experience significant improvement in the cognitive functions such –

• Reduced forgetfulness
• Mental clarity with no signs of confusion
