    The characteristic features of Alzheimer's disease (AD) are the appearance of extracellular amyloid-beta (Aβ) plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the intracellular environment, neuronal death and the loss of synapses, all of which contribute to cognitive decline in a progressive manner.

  2. Central mammalian neurons normally resistant to glutamate toxicity are made sensitive by elevated extracellular Ca2+: toxicity is blocked by the N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist MK-801

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 1988-09-01 Brain scans and imaging

    It is widely held that a glutamate-like toxin that resembles N-methyl-D-aspartate may be responsible for the death of nerve cells seen after severe neurological insults including stroke, seizures, and degenerative disorders, such as Huntington disease, Alzheimer disease, and the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-parkinsonism-dementia complex found on Guam.
