Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases are currently among the most common causes for low quality of life among US population. In addition to that, disabilities caused by neurodegenerative diseases, negatively impact economy by causing early workforce retirement. Existing human models of such conditions are hard to replicate and describe due to the wide array of factors influencing the progression and morphology of the disease. Recent studies suggest application of photodynamically induced oxidative stress in drosophila model as a viable trigger to neurodegenerative conditions. We hypothesize that neural degradation is accompanied by significant changes in brain chemistry and biomechanics. This preliminary study focuses on investigation of correlation between drosophila brain elasticity and induced oxidative stress using combined Brillouin-Raman spectroscopy as a label-free method of elasticity measurement.
