Alzheimer’s disease is a progressive neurological condition associated clinically with increasing difficulties with recent memory and recall, difficulties with thinking and changes in behavior. Pathologically there is a gradual reduction in function of the gray matter of the brain, associated with later actual loss of gray matter and thinning of the brain itself. While forgetfulness is often considered a normal symptom of aging, patients with Alzheimer’s disease have more significant memory loss, which begins to interfere with their overall functioning and activities of daily living. Over the past few decades we have developed several medicines which have been effective in stabilizing the memory and cognitive loss, associated with Alzheimer’s disease, however, gradual progression does continue and currently available medications cannot “cure this disease”. There is a pressing need for continued clinical research focused on the development of new medications for the potential treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.
