Deciphering Drug Targets For Alzheimers Disease

In recent years, a tremendous amount of effort has been focused on better understanding the fundamentals of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) to facilitate early and accurate diagnosis and appropriately targeted therapeutic treatments. Alzheimer’s Disease: Targets for New Clinical, Diagnostic, and Therapeutic Strategies provides a detailed synopsis of the current state of the art of diagnostics and therapeutics and identifies emerging technologies and molecules that show promise in the management and treatment of AD.

Emerging Drugs and Targets for Alzheimer's Disease collects some of the most outstanding examples of new drugs currently in pharmaceutical development or new targets under the validation process that will reach the Alzheimer's drug market over the next few years as disease modifying drugs.

Disease-relevant intracellular protein-protein interactions occurring at defined cellular sites possess great potential as drug targets. They permit highly specific pharmacological interference with defined cellular functions.
