Alzheimer's disease: a study of epidemiological aspects.

abstract：:As more small peptidergic components of the central nervous system are isolated, their role in disease states is being investigated. Several of these neuropeptides, especially the opioidlike peptides, adrenocorticotropic hormone, and some hypothalamic releasing factors, have been found to alter neuronal excitability. ...
