Abstract

Multiple lines of evidence demonstrate that oxidative stress is an early event in Alzheimer's disease (AD), occurring prior to cytopathology, and therefore may play a key pathogenic role in AD. Oxidative stress not only temporally precedes the pathological lesions of the disease but also activates cell signaling pathways, which, in turn, contribute to lesion formation and, at the same time, provoke cellular responses such as compensatory upregulation of antioxidant enzymes found in vulnerable neurons in AD. In this review, we provide an overview of the evidence of oxidative stress and compensatory responses that occur in AD, particularly focused on potential sources of oxidative stress and the roles and mechanism of activation of stress-activated protein kinase pathways.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Numerous findings support the involvement in AD pathogenesis of other mechanisms such as inflammation, imbalance among production and removal of ROS, mitochondrial dysfunction, in addition to the β-amyloid cascade and the deficiency of central cholinergic neurotransmitters.

    “Although the genetic susceptibility, numerous findings support the involvement in AD pathogenesis of other mechanisms such as inflammation [95], imbalance among production and removal of ROS [96], mitochondrial dysfunction [82], in addition to the β-amyloid cascade [97] and the deficiency of central cholinergic neurotransmitters [98] on which are based most of anti-AD drugs so far approved.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
