"Alzheimer'S Disease: Amyloid Biology and Fluid Biomarkers "
The commonality of many neurodegenerative disorders is the progressive temporal and spatial aggregation of specific proteins in the brain. The quintessential proteopathy is Alzheimer's disease (AD), in which the aggregation and seeded propagation of amyloid peptide triggers AD pathogenesis, including neuronal Tau inclusions and neurodegeneration. Current therapeutic strategies focus on early disease stages and aim ta inactivate seed propagation before the onset of neurodegeneration. However, ta develop such primary prevention approaches a mechanistic understanding of early disease stages is essential.
