Abstract
Alzheimer's disease(AD) is a type of dementia brought on by the central nervous system (CNS)'s chronic, progressive, irreversible degeneration. Its etiology is numerous and unclear. Currently, there is no effective cure for the disease. With the aging of the population, Alzheimer's disease is receiving increasing attention. A complex ecology of thousands of bacteria make up the intestinal microbiota, both beneficial and harmful bacteria. According to recent in-depth research on intestinal flora, it has been found that it can participate in signal transmission involving the brain and the gut. The crucial role of gut microbiota in the CNS is further illustrated by the fact that intestinal microflora can affect the central nervous system in a number of different ways, such as the release of neurotransmitters. By modifying the makeup and composition of the gut microbiota, there are numerous methods to enhance cognitive function in Alzheimer's patients. This article introduces the relevant research progress in order to provide references for further research and studying of the part gut microbiota plays in Alzheimer's disease.
