Prior therapies have focused on effects, not oncauses. They have triedto help symptoms or wished toremove amyloid or tau proteins.

As our cells age, the rate at which we recycle molecules — like beta amyloid — slows down. As recycling slows, there is a gradual accumulation of beta amyloid, resulting in microaggregates, amyloid plaque, and clinical disease.

Research shows that cell aging triggers the gradual accumulation of amyloid, as well as the loss of neurons that defines Alzheimer's.
