Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a diverse with complex pathophysiology. The presence of extracellular β-amyloid deposition as neuritic plaques and intracellular accumulation hyper-phosphorylated tau neurofibrillary tangles remain the core neuropathologic criteria for diagnosing disease. Nonetheless, several recent basic discoveries have revealed significant pathogenic roles other essential cellular molecular processes. Previously, there were not so many disease-modifying medications...
