Background: Emerging evidence underscores the importance of neuroinflammation in the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathophysiology. Recent studies indicate the involvement of the inflammatory mechanisms both in amyloid- β (Aβ) and tau deposition in the brain. Nevertheless, due to the complexity of the immune responses and the intricate interplay between the peripheral and the central nervous systems, identifying biomarkers that reflect the brain´s inflammatory state in AD has been a challenge.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common etiology of dementia. As the progression of the disease may be slowed down by disease-modifying therapies, but not stopped, research identifying further therapeutic approaches is necessary. Due to the multifactorial etiology of AD, targeting modifiable risk factors for dementia, including diet, is a starting point for preventive interventions.

Background: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a pathologically heterogeneous disease making it a challenge to develop effective treatments. Emerging evidence suggests that there are pathological differences between women and men with AD. More biomarkers are needed to enhance sex-specific precision medicine in AD.

Background: The omega-3 fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) has positive benefits for cardiovascular risk, reducing inflammation and improving endothelial function. Evidence suggests that Icosapent ethyl, a purified form of EPA, can improve cardiovascular outcomes in at-risk patients. Veterans are at higher risk for vascular dysfunction, a risk factor of Alzheimer's disease (AD), thus improving vascular health may be pivotal for delaying or preventing AD among Veterans.

Background: Reducing chronic inflammation has been linked to anti-inflammatory foods and may be implicated in treating Alzheimer's disease (AD). Plants produce antioxidants, such as phytochemicals, that appear to reduce the incidence of chronic inflammatory diseases. Phytochemicals may include active substances like polyphenols.
