It has been proved to cause disruption of glycogen synthase kinase-3, which is a crucial enzyme that causes the development of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques that are associated with A.D. (Alzheimer's disease.)
ມັນໄດ້ຖືກພິສູດວ່າຈະເຮັດໃຫ້ເກີດຄວາມວຸ້ນວາຍຂອງ glycogen synthase kinase-3, ເຊິ່ງເປັນທາດ enzyme ທີ່ ສໍາ ຄັນທີ່ເຮັດໃຫ້ການພັດທະນາຂອງໂຣກ neurofibrillary tangles ແລະແຜ່ນ amyloid ທີ່ກ່ຽວຂ້ອງກັບ AD (ພະຍາດ Alzheimer.)
