Caspase-1 inhibition alleviates cognitive impairment and neuropathology in an Alzheimer’s disease mouse model

Caspase-1, activated by stress in immune cells and in CNS human neurons, may contribute to neuronal degeneration. Here, the authors investigate the therapeutic potential of a Caspase-1 inhibitor in a mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease.
