Comparing 2 hypotheses side-by-side
## Molecular Mechanism and Rationale The Cross-Cell Type Synaptic Rescue hypothesis addresses Alzheimer's disease through coordinated restoration of tripartite synapse function, targeting the synchronized dysfunction that occurs between neurons, astrocytes, and microglia. At the neuronal level, synapsin-1 (SYN1) serves as the primary regulator of synaptic vesicle clustering and neurotransmitter release. Enhanced SYN1 expression promotes presynaptic vesicle availability and facilitates activity-
**SASP-Mediated Complement Cascade Amplification in Alzheimer's Disease** **Overview: Senescence, Inflammation, and Synaptic Loss** Cellular senescence—a state of irreversible growth arrest accompanied by a pro-inflammatory secretome—accumulates dramatically with age and in Alzheimer's disease. Senescent astrocytes and microglia secrete the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), a cocktail of cytokines, chemokines, proteases, and critically, complement cascade initiators including C
