Comparing 2 hypotheses side-by-side
**AMPK Hypersensitivity Engineering for Neuroprotection: Astrocyte-Mediated Mitochondrial Rescue** **Overview and Conceptual Framework** Neurons are exquisitely vulnerable to mitochondrial dysfunction due to their high metabolic demands and limited regenerative capacity. In Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative conditions, mitochondrial impairment (reduced ATP production, increased ROS, impaired Ca2+ buffering) precedes overt cell death by months to years. During this "metabolic prod
**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
