Late Onset Alzheimer's Disease Genetic Resource Study (funded by The Medical Research Council We are part of a large collaborative group of researchers working on Alzheimers Disease with centres in Cardiff, London, Cambridge and Dublin. Alzheimers Disease is a complicated disorder which is likely to be contributed to by a number of factors which include the influence of genes. Identifying and studying these genes will help us to understand the causes of Alzheimer's Disease and provide the basis for producing new treatments. We aim to collect a large series of carefully diagnosed and selected individuals with late - onset Alzheimers Disease and individuals without Alzheimers Disease of the same age, sex and ethnic background. Each participant will be assessed using a standarised interview. We will also collect a sample of blood from which we will obtain DNA. DNA and anonymised participant information will be made available to approved researchers in the field of neuro-degenerative disorders.

    Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is one of a small group of fatal diseases caused by infectious agents called prions. These attack the brain, killing cells and creating gaps in tissue. The brain takes on a characteristic sponge-like appearance. Early symptoms include memory problems, mood changes and lack of co-ordination. The disease progresses to shakiness and dementia. Those affected are eventually unable to move or speak. The CJD Support Network is the only registered charity providing help and support for people with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, their carers and concerned professionals. Founded in 1994 by relatives of people with CJD, with the help of the Alzheimer's Society and other professionals, the aims of the Network include:

    What is Lewy body disease?
    What is Lewy Body disease ?
    What are the symptoms ?
    What diagnostic tests are there ?
    Is treatment possible ?
    This sheet tells you about a condition called Lewy body disease which is a cause of dementia very similar to Alzheimer's disease. It differs both in the precise nature of the symptoms and in the damage that is found in the brain after death. There is no cure or treatment specifically for Lewy body disease. However, other drugs may help with some of the symptoms. Lewy body disease is a dementia which is caused by damage in the brain. It is similar to Alzheimer's disease, but symptoms are typically different on close examination, with different signs found in the brain after death. The cause is unknown. Lewy body disease has relatively recently been accepted as a separate disease in its own right. The disease gets its name because of the deposits which are found in the brain after death (named after the doctor who first wrote about them). Lewy bodies are round deposits which contain damaged nerve cells. They are probably formed as the cells try to protect themselves from attack. It is increasingly important to diagnose such conditions accurately as new drugs are developed which may be more effective in some types of dementia than in others.

    Table of Contents (click to jump to sections) What is Alzheimer's Disease?
    Is there any treatment?

    What is the prognosis?
    What research is being done? ... Additional resources from MEDLINEplus What is Alzheimer's Disease? Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive, neurodegenerative disease characterized by memory loss, language deterioration, impaired visuospatial skills, poor judgment, indifferent attitude, but preserved motor function. AD usually begins after age 65, however, its onset may occur as early as age 40, appearing first as memory decline and, over several years, destroying cognition, personality, and ability to function. Confusion and restlessness may also occur. The type, severity, sequence, and progression of mental changes vary widely. The early symptoms of AD, which include forgetfulness and loss of concentration, can be missed easily because they resemble natural signs of aging. Similar symptoms can also result from fatigue, grief, depression, illness, vision or hearing loss, the use of alcohol or certain medications, or simply the burden of too many details to remember at once.
