Alzheimer's disease: the amyloid cascade hypothesis: an update and reappraisal
J Alzheimers Dis.
2006.
Abstract
Here I recap the scientific and personal background of the delineation of the amyloid cascade hypothesis for Alzheimer's disease that I wrote with Gerry Higgins and the events leading to the writing of that influential review.
