Study of Caspase 8 Inhibition for the Management of Alzheimer’s Disease: A Molecular Docking and Dynamics Simulation
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia and usually manifests as diminished episodic memory and cognitive functions. Caspases are crucial mediators of neuronal death in a number of neurodegenerative diseases, and caspase 8 is considered a major therapeutic target in the context...
