Abstract:Background:
Traditionally, the accumulation of amyloid beta peptides (Aβ) and tau proteins are considered the main pathological hallmarks of AD due to their impact on cortical microstructural organization, which leads to dendritic deficit and neuronal loss. Additionally, it is hypothesized that these pathophysiological processes may induce axonal and oligodendrocyte dysfunction exacerbating myelin impairment. The objective of this cross-sectional study is to estimate the degree of alterations in white m… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
