Abstract
Ageing is a crucial risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and is characterised by systemic changes in both intracellular and extracellular microenvironments that affect the entire body instead of a single organ. Understanding the specific mechanisms underlying the role of ageing in disease development can facilitate the treatment of ageing-related diseases, such as AD. Signs of brain ageing have been observed in both AD patients and animal models. Alleviating the pathological changes caused by brain ageing can dramatically ameliorate the amyloid beta- and tau-induced neuropathological and memory impairments, indicating that ageing plays a crucial role in the pathophysiological process of AD. In this review, we summarize the impact of several age-related factors on AD and propose that preventing pathological changes caused by brain ageing is a promising strategy for improving cognitive health.
期刊介绍：
Translational Neurodegeneration, an open-access, peer-reviewed journal, addresses all aspects of neurodegenerative diseases. It serves as a prominent platform for research, therapeutics, and education, fostering discussions and insights across basic, translational, and clinical research domains. Covering Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, and other neurodegenerative conditions, it welcomes contributions on epidemiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis, prevention, drug development, rehabilitation, and drug delivery. Scientists, clinicians, and physician-scientists are encouraged to share their work in this specialized journal tailored to their fields.
