Abstract
Chronic exposure to high circulating levels of glucocorticoids (GCs) may be a key risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) development and progression. In addition, hyper-activation of glucocorticoid receptors (GRs) induces brain alterations comparable to those produced by AD. In transgenic mouse models of AD, GCs increase the production of the most important and typical hallmarks of this dementia such as: Aβ40, Aβ42 and tau protein (both the...
