| Summary: | Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a multifaceted neurodegenerative condition distinguished by the occurrence of memory impairment, cognitive deterioration, and neuronal impairment. Despite extensive research efforts, conventional treatment strategies primarily focus on symptom management, highlighting the need for innovative therapeutic approaches. This review explores the challenges of AD treatment and the integration of computational methodologies to advance therapeutic interventions. A comprehensive analysis of recent literature was conducted to elucidate the broad scope of Alzheimer's etiology and the limitations of conventional drug discovery approaches. Our findings underscore the critical role of computational models in elucidating disease mechanisms, identifying therapeutic targets, and expediting drug discovery. Through computational simulations, researchers can predict drug efficacy, optimize lead compounds, and facilitate personalized medicine approaches. Moreover, machine learning algorithms enhance early diagnosis and enable precision medicine strategies by analyzing multi-modal datasets. Case studies highlight the application of computational techniques in AD therapeutics, including the suppression of crucial proteins implicated in disease progression and the repurposing of existing drugs for AD management. Computational models elucidate the interplay between oxidative stress and neurodegeneration, offering insights into potential therapeutic interventions. Collaborative efforts between computational biologists, pharmacologists, and clinicians are essential to translate computational insights into clinically actionable interventions, ultimately improving patient outcomes and addressing the unmet medical needs of individuals affected by AD. Overall, integrating computational methodologies represents a promising paradigm shift in AD therapeutics, offering innovative solutions to overcome existing challenges and transform the landscape of AD treatment. |
