Article Synopsis
  • Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a major neurodegenerative condition that could impact up to one-third of older adults in the future, presenting significant challenges in diagnosis and treatment.
  • The paper discusses potential new methods for early AD detection, particularly focusing on the role of microRNAs as molecular markers, which could help differentiate AD from other neurodegenerative diseases.
  • Despite promising findings from recent studies on the use of miRNAs for AD diagnosis, more research is necessary to fully understand their effectiveness and application.
