"What causes Alzheimer's disease? "I've spent most of my professional life
trying to answer that question," says neuroscientist Rudolph Tanzi, director of
the McCance Center for Brain Health at Harvard-affiliated Massachusetts General
Hospital. It's an important question to answer, because Alzheimer's is the most
common form of dementia in many countries. In the United States, at least 10%
of people over age 65 have the disease.
As with most diseases, Alzheimer's is probably due to a combination of
inherited vulnerability, the presence of other conditions, and social and
lifestyle factors. And now scientists are investigating what part, if any,
infection might play in Alzheimer's development."
