Know what is herpes disease
Herpes is a long-term skin disease. It is caused by Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV). This virus affects the skin of the mouth or genital area or other parts of the body. Due to this, small pimples or wounds start appearing on your skin. You may feel itching, pain, burning etc. in it. These spots then keep on increasing gradually.
Herpes disease can cause Alzheimer's
First of all, it is important to know that Alzheimer's disease is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that destroys brain cells. Due to this, a person gradually starts forgetting things. According to doctors, this is a progressive disease, that is, its symptoms develop slowly and then take a serious form.
The common herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), better known as the virus responsible for the common cold, may be a factor behind Alzheimer's, according to a recent study led by Or Shemesh of the University of Pittsburgh.
Research done on 29 people
The study was conducted on 29 individuals in three groups: those without Alzheimer's, those with a mild form of the disease, and those with advanced Alzheimer's. The researchers studied brain tissue samples from several regions, including the hippocampus and entorhinal cortex, the areas typically most affected by Alzheimer's disease.
