Neurotoxic Insults and Alzheimer-Like Neurodegeneration: Mechanisms and Pharmacological Neuroprotection
Keywords:
Neurotoxic Insults, Alzheimer-Like Neurodegeneration, Pharmacological NeuroprotectionAbstract
Background: Alzheimer’s disease is a complex neurodegenerative disorder traditionally defined by amyloid-βaccumulation and tau pathology; however, growing evidence indicates that environmental and endogenous neurotoxicinsults play a significant contributory role in triggering Alzheimer-like neurodegeneration. Exposure to neurotoxic agents, particularly metals and other environmental toxicants
