释义
Alzheimer’s disease

Biology
  • A neurological disease characterized by progressive loss of intellectual ability. The disease, which is named after German physician Alois Alzheimer (1864–1915), is associated with general shrinkage of the brain tissue, with deposits of β‎-amyloid protein and abnormal filaments composed of tau protein in the brain, and changes in the neurotransmitter systems within the brain that include a loss in the activity of cholinergic neurons. Some inherited forms are associated with a genetic locus on chromosome 21.
