Abstract:
Inflammatory response clearly occured in pathologically vulnerable regions of the Alzheimers disease (AD) brain. Many proinflammatory mediators, such as IL-1, IL-6,TNF-? and TGF-?, were significantly up-regulated in the pathophysiological process of AD. In addition to their traditional actions as proinflammatory molecules, AD-specific interactions of the cytokines and amyloid ?(A?) may be pathophysiologically relevant, and there was a reciprocal relationship within the cytokines inducing and being induced by A?.
