Role of the Immune T Regulatory Cells in Mood Disorders and Alzheimer’s Disease Phenotype as a Therapeutic Target in Altered Gut-Brain Axis Cross-Talking

Time: 11:30 am
day: Focus Day Track 2

Details:

  • The role of the gut-brain axis in the onset and progression of degenerative conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease, will be discussed. In particular, the implication of the causative role of T-regulatory cells mediated influence on adaptive immunity in the gut-brain axis communication
  • Discussion of strategies to intervene in the brain degenerative progression by targeting selected T-regulatory mediated mechanisms to mitigate abnormal brain permeability and disease progression in response to stress-induced mood/ psychological impairment associated with the onset of Alzheimer’s disease phenotype
  • Discussion of novel strategies to move from preclinical observations to the clinical setting
