Frontotemporal dementia is a group of disorders caused by progressive cell degeneration in the brain’s frontal lobes or its temporal lobes. The cell damage caused by frontotemporal dementia leads to tissue shrinkage and reduced function in the brain’s frontal and temporal lobes‚ which control planning and judgment; emotions‚ speaking and understanding speech and certain types of movement. In those younger than age 65‚ FTD may account for up to 20 to 50 percent of dementia cases. People usually develop

The cerebrum is divided into a right and left hemisphere which are connected by axons that relay messages from one to the other. This matter is made of nerve cells which carry signals between the organ and the nerve cells which run through the body. Frontal Lobe: The frontal lobe is one of four lobes in the cerebral hemisphere. This lobe controls a several elements including creative thought

(mitochondria DNA) mutations might contribute to the neurodegeneration observed in Huntington’s disease. Part of the research was to analyze cerebral deletion levels in the temporal and frontal lobes. Research hypothesis: HD patients have significantly higher mtDNA deletionlevels than agematched controls in the frontal and temporal lobes of the cortex. To test the hypothesis‚ the amount of mtDNA deletion in 22 HD patients brains was examined by serial dilution-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and compared the

Phineas Gage was a 25 year old American construction foreman born in Grafton County‚ New Hampshire on July 9‚ 1823. Gage was one of the youngest men at his worksite. While at the moment was known for the good foreman which he was‚ his name quickly changed into one of the great names in psychology. It was an ordinary day at work while packing explosive powder into a hole while working on a railroad bed‚ he took a quick second to look up at his workers who were putting up a fight that was being started
