Comprehensive Review on Alzheimer's Disease: Causes and Treatment
1. Introduction. Alzheimer's disease (AD) (named after the German psychiatric Alois Alzheimer) is the most common type of dementia and can be defined as a slowly progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (Figure 1) as a result of amyloid-beta peptide's (Aβ) accumulation in the most affected area of the brain, the medial temporal ...

1. Introduction. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a polygenic and multifactorial disease characterized by the deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) fibrils in the brain, leading to the formation of plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), and ultimately resulting in dendritic dysfunction, neuronal cell death, memory loss, behavioral changes, and organ ...

Alzheimer's disease: 120 years of research and progress
Alzheimer's disease is by far the most common type of dementia, representing about 60-80% of all diagnosed cases of cognitive disorders [ 10 ]. In 2020, around 6.2 million Americans aged 65 or older had Alzheimer's disease, and this number is predicted to increase to 12.7 million Americans by 2050. Figure 5.
Seven recent papers amplify advances in Alzheimer's research
