Abstract
Curcumin, a polyphenol derived from the herb turmeric, has emerged as a prospective potential therapy in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the efficacy of curcumin treatment in improving cognitive decline caused controversy recently. We aimed to systematically review the effect of curcumin on cognitive impairment in an animal model of AD. We conducted an exhaustive database search of related studies. Two investigators identified studies and independently extracted data. Stratified meta-analyses and meta-regression analyses were carried out to explore the sources of heterogeneity. Publication bias was assessed using funnel plots and Egger's test. Our systematic review included 33 articles. A meta-analysis of 29 publications showed that curcumin exerts significant positive effects on cognitive performance. For acquisition, the global estimated effect of curcumin was - 2.027 (95% CI - 2.435 to - 1.619, p < 0.001); for retention, the global estimated effect of curcumin was 1.606 (95% CI 1.101 to 2.111, p < 0.001). The stratified meta-analysis demonstrated that an increased effect size depended on diverse study characteristics. Additionally, publication bias was detected. We conclude that curcumin may reduce cognitive deficits in experimental AD. Furthermore, we emphasize that additional well-designed and well-reported animal studies are needed to inform further clinical studies.

Abstract
Curcumin is widely used in spices in Asia. It has been widely explored for various diseases as therapeutic agent. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with dementia and cognitive disabilities. With the progression of disease, various changes appear in the brain cells that greatly affect the daily routine of the patient including sleep-wake disturbances. In the last few decades, extensive research has been carried out on this disease suggesting the development of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for its treatment. Since long, turmeric has been used in Asian countries as a home remedy for treating various ailments. Curcumin is an active ingredient isolated from the turmeric plant and is composed of curcuminoids. Because of its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-apoptotic and neuroprotective properties, curcumin can be safely administered to stop the progression of dementia and can be used for the development of such drugs that can reverse the neurotic damage caused by AD. This review article provides a comprehensive overview on the research carried out for AD using curcumin as active model drug.

Abstract
A 40-year-old male patient was referred to our department with complains of recurrent oral ulcer for more than 20 years and vulvar ulcer for more than 10 years. He presented with a 3-month history of right external ophthalmoplegia. More than 10 days ago, the patient received ganglioside infusion. And one week ago, he developed numbness and pain of his lambs, and progressive myasthenia, accompanied by right blepharoptosis and dysuria. On exam, motor strength was graded 0/5 in the lower and the upper extremities. Deep tendon reflexes were diminished in extremities. His admission medical examination: hemoglobin (HGB), white cell and platelet counts were normal. C-reactive protein (CRP) was negative. Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) 53 mm/h. Antinuclear antibody (ANA), anti-dsDNA antibody, anti-Smith antibody, anti-cardiolipin antibody and human leucocyte antigen B51 were all within normal range. The etiological tests of influenza A pathogen, influenza B pathogen, parainfluenza virus, enterovirus and parvovirus were all negative. He tested positive for serum anti-GM1 IgG. Cerebrospinal fluid had a normal white cell count, an elevated protein content. Gram staining, culture and PCR detection for varicella-zoster virus, cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus were all negative. Antibodies associated with autoimmune encephalitis and paraneoplastic syndrome were negative in cerebrospinal fluid. Electromyography and nerve conduction studies showed a severe axonal damage affecting motor nerves. No obvious abnormalities were observed in his magnetic resonance imaging of brain and cavernous sinus. The patient was diagnosed with Behcet syndrome complicated with acute Guillain-Barré syndrome. He received intravenous methylprednisolone, intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIg) therapy, plasma exchange and rituximab treatment. After treatment, the patient's muscle strength of limbs was restored to grade 1, blepharoptosis and pain disappeared. The nervous system involvement of Behcet syndrome is relatively rare, especially combined with Guillain-Barré syndrome, which is easy to cause misdiagnosis. The treatment of Behcet syndrome complicated with acute Guillain-Barré syndrome includes the treatment of primary disease, plasma exchange and IVIg therapy. In addition, supportive treatment is very important for such patients. The focus of treatment is to avoid respiratory insufficiency, prevent deep vein thrombosis, monitor cardiac function and hemodynamics. Pain-relieving, physical exercise and psychological support are often under-recognized. The rehabilitation treatment is very important to improve the prognosis and quality of life of patients. What we need to learn is that when the symptoms and signs of the nervous system are difficult to be explained by neuro-Behcet syndrome alone, we should be alert to the possibility of other nervous system diseases.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by the progressive degeneration of the structure and function of the central nervous system or peripheral nervous system. Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson's Disease (PD) and Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) are the common neurodegenerative diseases, which typically occur in people over the age of 60. With the rapid development of an aged society, over 60 million people worldwide are suffering from these uncurable diseases. Therefore, the search for new drugs and therapeutic methods has become an increasingly important research topic. Natural products especially those from the Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCMs), are the most important sources of drugs, and have received extensive interest among pharmacist. In this review, in order to facilitate further chemical modification of those useful natural products by pharmacists, we will bring together recent studies in single natural compound from TCMs with neuroprotective effect.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Millions of people worldwide are suffering from Alzheimer's disease (AD), and there are only symptomatic treatments available for this disease. Thus, there is a great need to identify drugs capable of arresting or reversing AD. Constituents of the spice turmeric, in particular, curcuminoids, seem to be very promising, as evident from in vitro experiments and tests using animal models of AD. However, most of the clinical trials did not reveal any beneficial effects of curcuminoids in the treatment of AD. These controversies, including conflicting results of clinical trials, are thought to be related to bioavailability of curcuminoids, which is low unless it is enhanced by developing a special formulation. However, there is growing evidence suggesting that other reasons may be of even greater importance, but these avenues are less explored. OBJECTIVE Review relevant literature, and analyze potential reasons for the controversial results. METHODOLOGY Recent in vitro and preclinical studies; clinical trials (without a limiting period) were searched in PubMed and Google Scholar. RESULTS While recent in vitro and preclinical studies confirm the therapeutic potential of curcuminoids in the treatment of AD and cognitive dysfunctions, results of corresponding clinical trials remain rather controversial. CONCLUSION The controversial results obtained in the clinical trials may be in part due to particularities of the curcuminoid formulations other than bioavailability. Namely, it seems likely that the various formulations differ in terms of their minor turmeric constituent(s). We hypothesize that these distinctions may be of key importance for efficacy of the particular formulation in clinical trials. A testable approach addressing this hypothesis is suggested.

Abstract
Curcumin, an orange-yellow lipophilic polyphenolic molecule, is the active component of Curcuma longa, which is extensively used as a spice in most of the Asian countries. This natural compound is able to interact with a large number of molecular structures like proteins, enzymes, lipids, DNA, RNA, transporter molecules, and ion channels. It has been reported to possess several biological effects such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, wound healing, antimicrobial, anticancer, antiangiogenic, antimutagenic, and antiplatelet aggregation properties. These beneficial effects of curcumin are because of its extraordinary chemical interactions such as extensive hydrogen and covalent bonding, metal chelation, and so on. Therefore, the aim of this review was to outline the evidence in which curcumin could affect different types of ion channels and ion channel-related diseases, and also to elucidate basic molecular mechanisms behind it. © 2019 IUBMB Life, 2019.

Abstract
Mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV) is an autosomal recessive, lysosomal storage disorder causing progressively severe intellectual disability, motor and speech deficits, retinal degeneration often culminating in blindness, and systemic disease causing a shortened lifespan. MLIV results from mutations in the gene MCOLN1 encoding the transient receptor potential channel mucolipin-1. It is an ultra-rare disease and is currently known to affect just over 100 diagnosed individuals. The last decade has provided a wealth of research focused on understanding the role of the enigmatic mucolipin-1 protein in cell and brain function and how its absence causes disease. This review explores our current understanding of the mucolipin-1 protein in relation to neuropathogenesis in MLIV and describes recent findings implicating mucolipin-1's important role in mechanistic target of rapamycin and TFEB (transcription factor EB) signaling feedback loops as well as in the function of the greater endosomal/lysosomal system. In addition to addressing the vital role of mucolipin-1 in the brain, we also report new data on the question of whether haploinsufficiency as would be anticipated in MCOLN1 heterozygotes is associated with any evidence of neuron dysfunction or disease. Greater insights into the role of mucolipin-1 in the nervous system can be expected to shed light not only on MLIV disease but also on numerous processes governing normal brain function. This article is part of the Special Issue "Lysosomal Storage Disorders".

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases have become a major challenge for public health because of their incurable status. Soft nanotechnology provides potential for slowing down the progression of neurodegenerative disorders by using innovative formulations of neuroprotective antioxidants like curcumin, resveratrol, vitamin E, rosmarinic acid, 7,8-dihydroxyflavone, coenzyme Q10, and fish oil. Curcumin is a natural, liposoluble compound, which is of considerable interest for nanomedicine development in combination therapies. The neuroprotective effects of combination treatments can involve restorative mechanisms against oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation, and protein aggregation. Despite the anti-amyloid and anti-tau potential of curcumin and its neurogenesis-stimulating properties, the utilization of this antioxidant as a drug in neuroregenerative therapies has huge limitations due to its poor water solubility, physico-chemical instability, and low oral bioavailability. We highlight the developments of soft lipid- and polymer-based delivery carriers of curcumin, which help improve the drug solubility and stability. We specifically focus on amphiphilic liquid crystalline nanocarriers (cubosome, hexosome, spongosome, and liposome particles) for the encapsulation of curcumin with the purpose of halting the progressive neuronal loss in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's diseases and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to investigate the neurotoxic effects of Fe3O4 magnetic- CurNPs on isolated schizophrenia mitochondria of rats as an in vivo model. METHODS We designed CMN loaded superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) (Fe3O4 magnetic- CurNPs) to achieve an enhanced therapeutic effect. The physicochemical properties of Fe3O4 magnetic- CurNPs were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), and dynamic laser light scattering (DLS) and zeta potential. Further, to prove Fe3O4 magnetic- CurNPs results in superior therapeutic effects, and also, the mitochondrial membrane potential collapse, mitochondrial complex II activity, reactive oxygen species generation, ATP level, cytochrome c release and histopathology of cerebellums were determined in brains of schizophrenic rats. RESULTS We showed that effective treatment with CMN reduced or prevented Fe3O4 magnetic-induced oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in the rat brain probably, as well as mitochondrial complex II activity, MMP, and ATP level were remarkably reduced in the cerebellum mitochondria of treated group toward control (p < 0.05). Therewith, ROS generation, and cytochrome c release were notably (p < 0.05) increased in the cerebellum mitochondria of treated group compared with control group. CONCLUSION Taken together, Fe3O4 magnetic- CurNPs exhibits potent antineurotoxicity activity in cerebellums of schizophrenic rats. This approach can be extended to preclinical and clinical use and may have importance in schizophernia treatment in the future. To our knowledge this is the first report that provides the Fe3O4 magnetic- CurNPs could enhance the neuroprotective effects of CMN in the Schizophrenia.
