Re: Anti-inflammatory drug reverses memory loss in Alzheimer’s-disease-model mice
When searching for mefenamic acid I found: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mefenamic_acidhttp://www.kurzweilai.net/anti-inflamma ... -282068986
"While studies have been conducted to see if mefenamic acid can improve behavior in transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer's disease[16][17] there is no good evidence that mefenamic acid or other NSAIDs can treat or prevent Alzheimer's in humans; clinical trials of NSAIDs other than mefenamic acid for treatment of Alzheimer's have found more harm than benefit.[18][19][20]"
Following up on the papers mentioned it seems Wiki tries to lump all NSAIDs together. Does mefenamic acid have a special property or do all NSAIDs work on the same NLRP3 inflammasome pathway?
