This 4-minute captioned video shows the intricate mechanisms involved in the progression of Alzheimer’s disease in the brain.
The human brain is a remarkable organ. Complex chemical and electrical processes take place within our brains that let us speak, move, see, remember, feel emotions and make decisions. Inside a normal healthy brain, billions of cells called neurons constantly communicate with one another.They receive messages from each other as electrical charges travel down the axon to the end of the neuron. The electrical charges release chemical messengers called neurotransmitters. The transmitters move across microscopic gaps, or synapses, between neurons… (continue here)
El cerebro humano es un órgano notable. Los procesos complejos químicos y eléctricos tienen lugar dentro de nuestro cerebro que nos permite hablar, movernos, ver, recordar, sentir emociones y tomar decisiones. Dentro de un cerebro normal y sano, miles de millones de células llamadas neuronas se comunican constantemente unas con otras.
