Calcium Ions Aggravate Alzheimer’s Disease Through the Aberrant Activation of Neuronal Networks, Leading to Synaptic and Cognitive Deficits

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease that is characterized by the production and deposition of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) and hyperphosphorylated tau, leading to the formation of β-amyloid plaques (APs) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). Although calcium ions (Ca2+) promote the forma...
