Summary: | Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive memory
loss and cognitive dysfunction. Currently there is no effective treatment. Given the depth of
current stem cell research, researchers have attempted to compensate for neuronal loss in
the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease using stem cell technology. This article will
review the pathogenesis of AD, the latest advances in stem cell therapy, and the challenges and
prospects of its development. |
