Critical nodes in precision diagnosis and treatment of Alzheimer's disease: exploration of multidimensional biomarkers and prospects for targeted intervention.

Alzheimer' s disease (AD), characterized by cognitive decline and progressive neurodegeneration, remains a major clinical and scientific challenge due to its complex pathophysiology and marked heterogeneity. Important signs of the disease, like the buildup of β-amyloid, changes in Tau proteins, inflammation in the brain, and problems with mitochondria, form the basis for developing targeted treatments. This review summarizes recent advances in the identification of therapeutic targets and multi-dimensional biomarkers, such as liquid, imaging, and multi-omics-based markers. These biomarkers hold potential for early diagnosis, disease subtyping, and therapeutic response monitoring. We suggest that combining biomarkers and treatment targets could be a key approach to improving personalized care for AD.
