Морские биоактивные компоненты и хроническая нейроинфламмация: сосредоточение внимания на нейродегенеративных заболеваниях.

Marine Bioactive Components and Chronic Neuroinflammation: Focus on Neurodegenerative Disease.

Advances in neuroscience, immunology, and neuroimmunology have revealed that the nervous and immune systems form a bidirectional integrated network, ranging from regulating inflammation to directing stress responses, pivotal for the maintenance of the brain-body physiology. Like peripheral inflammation, neuroinflammation is a conserved process aimed at activating innate/adaptive immune and non-immune cells to effectively deal with bacteria, viruses, toxins, and injuries, and eventually at removing the microbial pathogens and supporting tissue repair and recovery. A failure of this process or the permanent release of pro-inflammatory mediators causes a condition called "chronic low-grade neuroinflammation" resulting in tissue damage and an increased risk of developing neurodegenerative diseases (NDD), such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), multiple sclerosis (MS), and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Marine-derived bioactive components are able to modulate lipid and glucose metabolism as well as inflammation and oxidative stress. In this review, we describe the neuroinflammatory process and its involvement in the pathogenesis and progression of AD, PD, MS, and ALS. Then, we discuss the potential therapeutic efficacy of select marine-derived bioactive components.
