Abstract

In the old age increase the frequencies of mental disease such as primary dementias, being presented most frequently Alzheimer´s Disease and vascular dementia. The principal progress is based on the determination of the early presence of changes in the patients genetically predisposed to suffer from Alzheimer’s disease, studies endorsed by a monitoring to patients with mutations from 1 to 3 genes associated with Alzheimer’s disease of early appearance. For first time we got a chronological table of the events that indicate the need for early intervention, with available biological markers that can be measured in order to evaluate the effects of the pharmacotherapy.

Keywords:Dementia; Alzheimer´s disease; Biological marker; Beta protein amyloide
