  • Description: Alzheimer disease (AD) is the primary form of dementia that occurs spontaneously in older adults. Interestingly, the epigenetic profile of the cells forming the central nervous system changes during aging and may contribute to the progression of some neurodegenerative diseases such as AD. In this review, we present general insights into relevant epigenetic mechanisms and their relationship with aging and AD. The data suggest that some epigenetic changes during aging could be utilized as biomarkers and target molecules for the prevention and control of AD.
