- mattkrause 9y agoCare to elaborate? I know there are theories that it's linked to inflammation (etc), but it clearly has some effect on neurons. It's not clear whether reversing those effects also reverses the disease (the anti-Abeta antibody stuff has been disappointing), but given that neurons are.....important for cognition, it doesn't seem totally insane to think that they are somehow involved in AZ too.
