**Gamma Entrainment Therapy for Alzheimer's Disease: Circuit-Level Intervention** **Overview and Neurophysiological Basis** Gamma oscillations (30-100 Hz, typically 40 Hz) are fundamental rhythms of the brain, generated by synchronized firing of excitatory pyramidal neurons and inhibitory parvalbumin-positive (PV+) interneurons. These oscillations coordinate information transfer between hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, enabling memory encoding, consolidation, and retrieval. In Alzheimer's di
## Molecular Mechanism and Rationale Somatostatin-positive (SST+) interneurons in entorhinal cortex layer II provide critical GABAergic inhibition that regulates the excitability of stellate cells and controls the temporal dynamics of perforant path output to the hippocampus. Early tau hyperphosphorylation disrupts the intrinsic membrane properties and synaptic function of SST interneurons, leading to disinhibition of layer II stellate cells and aberrant gamma oscillations in the 30-80 Hz range
