Abstract
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has been under debate for many years, regarding the research that is being conducted so as to find novel ways to deal with that disease and alleviate its symptoms, making the lives of patients easier and less challenging. In this essay, there has been an approach from a slightly different perspective,, mainly focusing on certain molecular pathways, which recently have been found to be in the center of attention, concerning their involvement in the development of AD. The participation of certain cytokines was also investigated primarily of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α), and other molecules like Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF), which has also been recently shown to contribute in AD pathology .
