Abstract

Alzheimer’s disease is one of the most common neurodegenerative disorders amongst the elderly, leading to dementia. Current studies of its molecular basis reveal various factors culminating in the cytotoxic cascade associated with the disease. Progress in understanding these events has led to the identification of novel therapeutic targets. This article is an attempt to understand the global scientific efforts in deciphering the mystery of this disease for a possible cure.
