Book Synopsis Cerebrovascular Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease by : Jack C. De La Torre
Book excerpt: The pathogenesis and progression of Alzheimer's disease is examined from the less-usual vantage point of the dysfunctional cerebrovasculature on amyloid formation, loss of neuronal homeostasis, synaptic changes, metabolic compromise, and cognitive decline. The book explores whether the cerebrovascular changes precede or follow clinical onset of the disease and the extent to which the pathological changes found in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease are related to cerebral blood flow, perfusion, and blood-brain barrier dysfunction.
