**Molecular Mechanism and Rationale** The reelin signaling pathway represents a critical molecular framework for maintaining neuronal architecture and synaptic integrity in the entorhinal cortex, particularly within layer II stellate neurons that serve as the cellular substrate for grid cell function. Reelin, encoded by the RELN gene, is a large extracellular glycoprotein (388 kDa) that functions as a key regulator of neuronal positioning during development and synaptic plasticity in the adult

**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
