PREVENTIVE AND THERAPEUTIC VACCINE FOR ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE

A method for producing theraputic vaccine which consist of NMDA-NRI subunit expressed in insect cells to produce recombinant protein which was encapsulated in PLGA or poly(lactide-co-glycolic acid) microparticles by solvent exchange and used for oral immunization. Excitotoxicity (i.e., a process in which an excessive amount of extracellular glutamate overexcites glutamate receptors and harms neurons) is the common cause involved in a number of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer, Parkinson, Huntington, Amyloid lateral sclerosis(ALS) and neurological conditions such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, Epilepsy. Thus the experimental model for stroke has been developed for the study of powerful N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) NRI subunits, their protective and therapeutic potential for treatment of the neurodegenerative disorder Alzheimer's in animals and its practicability for therapy in humans.
