Abstract
SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.
Abstract
Age-associated neurodegenerative disorders are a growing cause of mortality and morbidity in the elderly population globally. The patients suffering from neurodegenerative disorders pose medical, economic, and social issues. The agingassociated neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD), have different clinical and neuropathological signatures, but they share a pattern of neurodegeneration in anatomical and functionally related regions. Natural products offer great potential in the prevention and therapy of neurodegenerative diseases. Plant-derived products protect neurons by targeting oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, neurotrophic factor deficit, and abnormal protein accumulation. The current chapter discusses the neuroprotective effect of natural products in the prevention of aging-associated neurodegenerative disorders.
