Comparing 2 hypotheses side-by-side
## Selective Cholinergic Protection via APP Pathway Modulation ### Mechanistic Hypothesis Overview The "Selective Cholinergic Protection via APP Pathway Modulation" hypothesis proposes that the selective vulnerability of basal forebrain cholinergic neurons in Alzheimer's disease arises from their unique molecular biology — particularly their high expression of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and the amyloidogenic processing that generates Aβ — and that modulating APP trafficking and processing
**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
