Alzheimer's disease is a neurological disorder that causes memory loss and cognitive decline as a result of gradual destruction of nerve cells in the brain. The disease develops due to the accumulation of two main proteins, beta-amyloid and tau, which form amyloid plaques and tau tangles, leading to cell damage and their inability to communicate. Factors such as metabolic disorders, chronic inflammation, and genetic predispositions are believed to contribute to the onset and progression of the disease. Additionally, aging reduces the efficiency of the system responsible for clearing these proteins, increasing the risk of developing the condition. While Alzheimer's remains one of the primary causes of dementia, other types of dementia also lead to the deterioration of brain functions. Understanding the causes of protein accumulation and inflammation enhances research aimed at more effective prevention and diagnosis methods.
