Molecular Mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease IV

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue is the fourth volume in a series of Special Issues titled "Molecular Mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease", "Molecular Mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease II", and “Molecular Mechanism of Alzheimer's Disease III”. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an age-related neurological disease that affects tens of millions of people and their carers worldwide. Hallmark features of AD include plaques composed of amyloid beta, as well as neurofibrillary tangles of tau protein. However, despite more than a century of research, the cause of AD remains inconclusive. The roles of amyloid beta and tau are being investigated, and other causes of AD are now under consideration. The contributions of researchers, model organisms, and various hypotheses will be examined in this Special Issue.

Prof. Dr. Ludwig Aigner
