Integrated computational and experimental analysis of non-neuronal cell molecular mechanisms contributing to Alzheimer's disease progression

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia, characterized by symptoms such as memory loss and language disruption. Amyloid beta-containing plaques and hyperphosphorylated tau-containing neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) are defining characteristics of AD. However, plaques and NFTs are...
