Teresa Aguiló (Voice in off): “Less than 80 degrees, large deep freezers preserved brain samples collected over decades. Such extreme temperatures are necessary to keep intact proteins possessing neurons”
Koldo Callado: “Pieces of brains of patients who died 40 years ago .........,; if we stimulate these proteins, they are able to react to that stimulus .. even 30 or 40 years after someonewho has died”
Teresa Aguiló: “So they were compared post mortem brains mature, diagnosed with alcoholism at least a decade, with other not consumers of Ethanol. The graphs show clear changes in proteins in the brains of drinkers”
Koldo Callado (Professor Pharmacology of University Pais Vasco): “We have seen that the majority of cases, in the brains of alcoholic patients had less amount of protein than in controls; but in some cases, for example in Alzheimer's disease, an overexpressed is produced in some types of protein”
Teresa: “hese changes in proteins in alcoholics affect various functions”
Koldo: “Loss of impulse control, problems to develop high cognitive functions, fix the attention…….”
Teresa: “Refine, at the molecular level, the damage of alcohol on the brain opens the door to new drugs and therapies to prevent and mitigate its deterioration”
Well, I hope that you have liked this post.
