Abstract
As the populations of the developed world continue to age, the number of people who develop Alzheimer's disease (AD) or other forms of dementia is set to rise. In the United States, for example, the prevalence of AD is projected to quadruple over the next 50 years (Brookmeyer & Gray, 2000). The search for factors that might help to prevent or treat these conditions has therefore assumed a particular relevance.
