Early-Stage Challenges in Neurodegenerative Diseases and Optimal Drug Development Strategies

Neurodegenerative diseases are caused due to the progressive degeneration of brain function.

These are age-dependent disorders which affect the neurons in the human brain and cause problems with body activities like breathing, heart function, ataxias or mental functioning (dementia).

Many well-known neurodegenerative diseases that affect the functioning of the human brain are Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, Huntington’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, and the spinocerebellar ataxias.

Some of the potent biomarkers can detect the early onset of these commonly-prevalent neurodegenerative diseases.

On the other hand, some rare diseases which mainly affect children are Batten disease, Duchenne muscular dystrophy, neuroblastoma, and Gaucher disease.

Any of the neurodegenerative diseases of children is considered complicated, which often creates a great challenge for the researchers to diagnose and manage.
