Wali okirabye nti maama wo, taata wo, oba omuntu wo omukadde yeerabira ebintu? Oluusi okwerabira amannya, endagiriro, oba n’okujjukira endabirwamu zo gye ziri kya bulijjo ng’ogenda okaddiwa. Naye singa okwerabira kuno kweyongera mpolampola n’otosobola kukola wadde emirimu gya buli lunaku ku bubwo, kiyinza okuba akabonero k’Obulwadde bwa Alzheimer. Awo ekibuuzo ekinene ekijja mu birowoozo byaffe kiri nti, ‘Lwaki ensi eyakulaakulana bwetyo tennafuna ddagala lya bulwadde buno?’. Katukyogereko mu bujjuvu leero.
Obulwadde buno bwasooka kuzuulibwa butya?
Emboozi eno etandika emyaka egisukka mu 100 egiyise, mu 1901. Omusawo Omugirimaani ayitibwa Alois Alzheimer yakebera obwongo bw’omukazi eyali afudde obulwadde bw’okubulwa amagezi. Yalaba ekintu ekyewuunyisa ennyo. Wakati w’obusimu obuyitibwa neurons mu bwongo, ekika kya puloteyina kyali kifuuse ekikwata era nga kizibuwalidde, ng’ebipande. Bino oluvannyuma byayitibwa "ebipande." Era yalaba nti ekika kya puloteyina ekirala kyali kitabuddwa era nga kitabuddwa ng’obuwuzi munda mu busimu obuyitibwa neurons. Bino byayitibwanga "tangles."
Ekiseera bwe kyagenda kiyitawo, bannassaayansi baazuula nti ebipande ebyo ebiringa enkovu byakolebwa mu puloteyina eyitibwa beta-amyloid . Era baazuula nti ebiwuziwuzi ebiringa obuwuzi byakolebwa mu puloteyina endala eyitibwa tau . Oluvannyuma obulwadde buno bwatuumibwa erinnya "Alzheimer's disease" nga bassa ekitiibwa mu musawo eyabuzuula.
Emboozi ennene eya "Amyloid Hypothesis".
Kale, emyaka gya 1990 we gyatuukira, ekirowoozo ekinene kyali kikulaakulanye mu banoonyereza. Ekyo kyali nti, ekisinga okuvaako obulwadde buno byali bipande bya beta-amyloid ebyakuŋŋaanyizibwa mu bwongo. Endowooza eno yayitibwa "Amyloid Hypothesis." Mu ngeri ennyangu, baali balowooza nti ebipande bino ebya amyloid bye bivaako obutoffaali bw’obwongo okufa n’okulemererwa okujjukira.
So, for the past 30 years , okunoonyereza okusinga obungi ku bulwadde bwa Alzheimer n’okufuba okusinga okuzuula eddagala kubadde kwesigamiziddwa ku ndowooza eno eya amyloid.
Naye kino kibadde kituuse ku buwanguzi? Si ddala. Ebikumi n’ebikumi by’eddagala ligezeseddwa okuggyawo obuwuka buno obwa amyloid, naye tewali n’emu ereese njawulo nnene mu bulamu bw’abalwadde. Eddagala erikendeeza ku bungi bwa amyloid mu bwongo terikomye mulwadde kubulwa kujjukira oba okulongoosa obulamu bwe obwa bulijjo. N’eddagala eryayisibwa gye buvuddeko erya `lecanemab` lifuze katono nnyo okweyongera kw’obulwadde buno, naye si ddagala.
Tusibidde mu kkubo lye limu?
Olw'ebivuddemu bino ebitafunye buwanguzi, kati abanoonyereza bangi beebuuza nti, "Tugenda mu kkubo likyamu?" Mu butuufu, ssaayansi si kintu ekiyinza okuleeta enjawulo nnene omulundi gumu. Kiringa emmeeri ennene, tesobola kukyusibwa omulundi gumu. Abanoonyereza basoma omulamwa gwe gumu okumala emyaka, oluvannyuma ne bakola okunoonyereza okusingawo ku mulamwa gwe gumu. Olwo, ekibinja ekinene eky’abantu n’okumanya bizimbibwa okwetoloola endowooza y’emu. Bw’ogenda okukola n’ekirowoozo ekipya, enkola n’obumanyirivu ebikwatagana nabyo bibulamu. Kale, mu mbeera y'obulwadde bwa Alzheimer, emmeeri eno ennene yali egenda mu kkubo lya "amyloid." N’olwekyo, okufaayo okutono ennyo kwassibwa ku bintu ebirala, gamba ng’okuzimba, yinfekisoni ez’enjawulo, oba endwadde ezikwatibwa abaserikale b’omubiri.
Naye, emboozi eno eya amyloid si nkyamu ddala. Mpozzi obuzibu buli mu ddagala. Oba, ekiseera ky’eddagala lino kiyinza okuba ekikyamu. Mpozzi eddagala lino lirina okutandikibwako emyaka ng’obubonero tebunnalabika.
Waaliwo ekizibu ekirala. Okutuuka emyaka nga kkumi egiyise, tewaali ngeri yonna gye bayinza kukakasa bulwadde bwa Alzheimer 100% ng’omuntu akyali mulamu, okuggyako okwekebejja obwongo bwe nga amaze okufa. Kale, abamu ku bantu abeetabye mu kunoonyereza okukadde mu butuufu tebaalina bulwadde bwa Alzheimer. Kale data okuva mu kunoonyereza okwo yali nkyamu, nedda?
Naye kati embeera ya njawulo. Nga tukozesa tekinologiya omupya naddala PET scans n’okukebera amazzi g’omu bwongo, kisoboka okuzuula okubeerawo kwa proteins za amyloid ne tau mu bwongo bw’omuntu omulamu.
'Traffic Jam' Munda mu Bwongo n'okunoonyereza okupya
Kati mu kifo ky'okulowooza ku ky'okuggyawo ebipande ebyo byokka, abanoonyereza batandise okutunuulira ekikolo ekivaako ekizibu kino, nga babuuza nti, "Lwaki ebipande bino bitondebwa?" Kiringa nga tosobola kugonjoola kizibu nga tomanyi bulungi gye kiri. Kati, waliwo endowooza empya eziwerako ku kino. Ka tulabe kye bali.
| Obulagirizi obupya obw’okunoonyereza | Mu ngeri ennyangu... |
|---|---|
| Ekizibu ky’omutendera gw’obutoffaali | ‘Traffic jam’ ebaawo mu nkola etambuza puloteyina munda mu butoffaali bw’obwongo. Kino kireetera obutoffaali bwa amyloid ne tau okuzimba. Abanoonyereza banoonya engeri y’okugogola ‘jam’ eno. |
| Obulwadde bw’abaserikale b’omubiri (autoimmune disease). | Okusinziira ku ndowooza eno, amyloid kitundu ku baziyiza b’obwongo. Wabula olw’ensobi ezimu, enkola eno egenda mu ngeri ya haywire n’elumba obutoffaali bw’obwongo obulamu mu kifo ky’okulwanyisa yinfekisoni. |
| Yinfekisoni n’okuzimba | Waliwo obukakafu obulaga nti okuzimba mu bwongo okuva ku yinfekisoni ezimu ez’akawuka, gamba nga herpes, kuyinza okuba nga kwe kuvaako obulwadde bwa Alzheimer. |
| Obulwadde bw’okukyukakyuka mu mubiri | Abantu abamu kino bakiyita "ssukaali w'obwongo" oba "Type 3 Diabetes." Mu kino, obutoffaali bw’obwongo tebuddamu bulungi insulini (okuziyiza insulini), ekivaako okuzimba n’okwonooneka okulala. |
Kale tewali kye tuyinza kukola? Ka twogere ku kuziyiza.
Bw’owulira bino byonna, oyinza okulowooza nti, ‘Oo, tewali ky’oyinza kubikola.’ Naye tolowooza bwekityo. Amawulire amalungi gali nti obulwadde bwa Alzheimer butwala ekiseera kiwanvu okukula, emyaka nga 20 ku 30. Ekyo kitegeeza nti tulina obudde bungi okukomya oba okukendeeza ku kukula kw’obulwadde.
Wadde nga waliwo enkola y’obuzaale, waliwo ebintu bingi ebiyinza okukyusibwa ebiyinza okukosa enkula y’obulwadde bwa Alzheimer. Bino bye bino:
- Obunene
- Ekirwadde ekya sukaali
- Obulwadde bw’emisuwa n’emisuwa
- Kolesterol omungi
- Puleesa eri waggulu
- Okubulwa okuwulira
- Okwennyamira n’okubeera obw’omu
Ekyo kitegeeza nti okufuga puleesa, kolesterol, ne ssukaali , okukuuma omugejjo omulungi, okukola dduyiro, n’okulya emmere ennungi bye bintu ebisinga obulungi by’oyinza okukola okukendeeza ku bulabe bw’okufuna obulwadde bwa Alzheimer’s. Oluusi, n’ekintu eky’angu ng’okukozesa ekyuma ekiyamba okuwulira ku kizibu ky’okuwulira kiyinza okuleeta enjawulo nnene.
Ekirungi ekisinga obunene ekiri mu bintu bino kwe kuba nti tebirina bulabe nnyo, tebirina bbeeyi ntono, era birungi eri obulamu bwaffe okutwalira awamu. Kigasa kitya okukyusa obulamu bwaffe okusinga okusaasaanya obutitimbe bwa ddoola omwaka ku ddagala eppya?
Mu biseera eby'omu maaso, obujjanjabi bwa Alzheimer, okufaananako n'obujjanjabi bwa kookolo, buyinza okuzingiramu okugatta enkola n'eddagala ery'enjawulo ebiwerako, "cocktail," okusinga eddagala limu. Kyokka bannassaayansi babuusabuusa enzikiriza zaabwe enkadde ne banoonya engeri empya ez’okulwanyisa obulwadde buno, era essuubi erisinga obunene mu kulwanyisa obulwadde buno kwe kunoonya engeri empya ez’okubujjanjaba.
Obubaka Obutwala Awaka
- Obulwadde bwa Alzheimer bulwadde buzibu nnyo. Tekikoma ku kukuŋŋaanyizibwa kwa amyloid plaques mu bwongo.
- N'olwekyo, tekijja kusoboka kuwonya bulwadde buno na "empeke y'amagezi" emu mu bbanga eritali ly'ewala.
- Kati abanoonyereza essira balitadde ku bintu eby’enjawulo ng’obuzibu bw’abaserikale b’omubiri, yinfekisoni, n’endwadde z’enkyukakyuka mu mubiri.
- Ekisinga obukulu: Osobola okukendeeza ku bulabe bwo. Kikulu okufuga puleesa, ssukaali, kolesterol, dduyiro, n’okulya emmere ennungi.
- Bw’oba olina ekikweraliikiriza oba okutya ku kujjukira kwo oba okujjukira kw’omwagalwa wo, tolwawo kwogera n’omusawo wo ku nsonga eyo. Gy’okoma okukyogerako amangu, gye kikoma okubeera ekirungi.
