Alzheimer’s disease is known as one of the “top ten killers in the world”. Due to lack of effective therapy at present, early pathological changes have captivated widespread attention. Axonal transport dysfunction has been reported as an early pathological feature of many neurodegenerative diseases. However, multiple factors can cause axonal transport dysfunction. In this article, the relationship between axonal transport dysfunction caused by kinesins, microtubules and mitochondria and Alzheimer’s disease was discussed, aiming to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer’s disease by in-depth study on axonal transport mechanism of neure.
