Abstract
Cortical inhibitory neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, dopamine and noradrenaline are probably either not selectively or not critically affected in AD. It is, however, likely that a key change is shrinkage or loss of corticocortical pyramidal neurones, which probably use glutamate as their transmitter. This depletion appears to be circumscribed and clinically relevant.
