Ukutyhilwa kwesifo sika-Alzheimer: Izizathu

Isifo se-Alzheimer asiqondwa ngokupheleleyo zizazinzulu, nangona kunjalo, ukukhanya kwavela ekugqibeleni komjelo wehlabathi lesayensi. Izifundo ziqinisekisile ukuba oogqirha banethuba lokuthintela okanye ukuxela kwangaphambili isifo esiqhelekileyo phakathi kwesizukulwana esidala.

Ukonyuka kwengqokelela yentsholongwane ye-herpes HHV-6A kunye ne-HHV-7, ngokutsho kwesayensi, ngunobangela wokuvela kwesifo i-Alzheimer's. Iziphumo ezipapashiweyo zolu phando kwijenali uNeuron, zagxekwa kwangoko ezinye iipundits. Kwimithombo yeendaba, abavelisi bezinto ezintsha batyholwa ngeziphumo ezingathembekanga.

Kwiqela labantu be-1000 abafunyaniswa abane-Alzheimer's, kuphela i-30% yezigulana ibonise ukonyuka kwentsholongwane ye-herpes HHV-6A kunye ne-HHV-7.

Ikhonkco enxulumene nentsholongwane ye-ethology kwi-30% isampulu ayonelanga. Ukuqiniseka ngesiphumo sovavanyo oluqinisekileyo, i-51% iyafuneka. Ukongeza, izazinzulu zifihle ukuba kubantu abaphilayo abangakhange bahlaswe sisifo i-Alzheimer, ukufunyanwa kwe-herpes virus HHV-6A kunye ne-HHV-7 kwafunyanwa. Unjingalwazi weGenetics, kwiYunivesithi yaseLondon, uJohn Hardy, ucebisa ngokuqhubeka kuphando kwaye bangaphazanyiswa zizigqibo ezingxamisekileyo.

Isifo se-Alzheimer sisifo esichaphazela abantu ngaphezulu kweminyaka ye-60. Ukuphazamiseka kwexesha elifutshane kunye nokulahleka kwememori yexesha elide kunye nokuthetha okungahambi kakuhle kunye nokuziqhelanisa nendawo yendawo ziimpawu ezisisiseko. Ukuqhubela phambili, esi sifo sikhokelela emzimbeni ekufeni. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, esi sifo sithathwa njengenganyangeki. Nokuba kuyinyani ukuba kwi-2016, i-Israelis ikwazile ukunyanga iimpuku zovavanyo ngeempawu ze-Alzheimer's.
