Dementia

533
Dementia is a collective term for cognitive disorders primarily affecting memory, thinking, and reasoning. It is not a specific disease but a syndrome, with Alzheimer's disease being the most common cause, accounting for approximately 60-80% of cases. Other types include vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Dementia affects millions worldwide, particularly older adults, though it is not a normal part of aging.
The progression of dementia is generally gradual....

Lesson: Translation
Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from the genetic information carried by messenger RNA (mRNA). Following transcription, it constitutes the final step in the expression of genes. This process is carried out by ribosomes, complexes of protein and specialized RNA molecules. Ribosomes, transfer RNA (tRNA), and other proteins produce a chain of amino acids—the polypeptide—as the end product of translation.

Initiation of Translation

38.4K
Initiating translation is complex because it involves multiple molecules. Initiator tRNA, ribosomal subunits, and eukaryotic initiation factors (eIFs) are all required to assemble on the initiation codon of mRNA. This process consists of several steps that are mediated by different eIFs.
First, the initiator tRNA must be selected from the pool of elongator tRNAs by eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (eIF2). The initiator tRNA (Met-tRNAi) has conserved sequence elements including modified bases at...

Termination of Translation

27.5K
The large ribosomal subunit has several important structures essential to translation. These include the peptidyl transferase center (PTC) - which is the site where the peptide bond is formed - and a large, internal, water-filled tube through which the nascent polypeptide moves. This latter structure is called the Peptide Exit Tunnel, and it begins at the PTC and spans the body of the large ribosomal subunit. During translation, as the nascent polypeptide chain is synthesized, it passes through...

Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Public Health
  • Higher Education Policy

Background:

  • Universities have a role in promoting social impact and community well-being.
  • Developing a dementia-literate workforce is crucial for supporting individuals with dementia.
  • Existing university curricula may not adequately address dementia awareness or support.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To implement and evaluate a strategy for fostering dementia literacy within a university setting.
  • To encourage academics and students to integrate dementia-supportive knowledge and skills into their disciplines.
  • To explore the potential for universities to contribute to creating dementia-friendly communities.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a knowledge translation framework to guide the Dementia Enabling University Strategy.
  • Engaged academics and students across eight diverse disciplines: law, media, social sciences, public health, engineering, business, marketing, and psychology.
  • Focused on inspiring and supporting engagement with dementia-related issues.

Main Results:

  • The strategy successfully engaged university academics and students across multiple disciplines.
  • Demonstrated the feasibility of integrating dementia-related learning and awareness into various academic fields.
  • Highlighted the need for a sustained approach to embed dementia as a core university agenda item.

Conclusions:

  • Universities can effectively promote social impact by developing a dementia-literate workforce.
  • The Dementia Enabling University Strategy showed promise in engaging the academic community on dementia.
  • A longer-term, embedded strategy is necessary to make dementia support a fundamental part of a university's impact mission.
