AB  - Dementia,  including  Alzheimer  disease,  involves  a  number  of  brain  systems.  There  is  evidence  for  a  decrease  in  markers  of  cholinergic  neuron  activity  and  for  changes  in  brain  glutamate,  dopamine,  norepinephrine,  serotonin,  and  somatostatin.  Eventually,  cholinergic  neurons  die  or  are  destroyed.  Treatment  has  focused  on  increasing  the  amount  of  acetylcholine  in  the  synapse  by  inhibiting  the  breakdown  of  acetylcholine.
