"¿En qué se diferencia la enfermedad de Alzheimer de otras formas de demencia?
La enfermedad de Alzheimer se diferencia de otras formas de demencia por los cambios característicos que se producen en el encéfalo y que sólo son visibles mediante examen con el microscopio durante la autopsia. En los encéfalos afectados por la enfermedad de Alzheimer se suele encontrar lo siguiente:

Fibras enredadas en las células nerviosas (**ovillos neurofibrilares**).

Grupos de terminales nerviosas en proceso de degeneración (**placas neuríticas**)..."

"Plaques and Tangles

In AD (Alzheimer's Disease) , neurons, and the spaces between them, become clogged with protein deposits. These deposits are called plaques and tangles. Plaques and tangles develop as part of the normal aging process. But in people with AD, there are many more of them.

Plaques and tangles prevent the neurons from sending impulses to each other.

The protein that makes up plaques is normally found in the body. But plaques are abnormal sticky clusters of this protein. They are found in the spaces between the neurons. They can disrupt the pathways that carry signals from one neuron to the other.

Tangles are also made up of a protein that is normally in the body. But the protein gets "tangled" up. Tangles look like threads wrapped around each other. They are found inside the neurons. Tangles can clog up the cell and keep it from functioning properly. Some researchers believe that tangles seriously damage the neurons, causing them to die.

When neurons are clogged with tangles, and the spaces between neurons are clogged with plaques, the transmission of nerve impulses from one neuron to the next does not happen properly. As a result, the brain cannot perform mental functions, like remembering and thinking.

Right now, there is no prevention or cure for plaques and tangles. But the more we learn about them, the better the chances are that we will be able to prevent or control them in the future..." (etc...)

Suerte ... :o)
