RESUMO
Alpha rhythm slowing is an important electroencephalogram(EEG) feature associated with (AD). This study aims to understand the correlation between alpha band deceleration and molecular changes from the perspective of neural computing. Considering the effect of Aß amyloid deposition on the inhibitory changes in the thalamic, a thalamic cortical model coupled with Aß amyloid is established. The results show that Aß amyloid deposition may induce neurotoxicity in thalamic reticular nucleus neurons, which results in inhibitory changes in the thalamus and slows the alpha rhythm of EEG output from the thalamus. In order to understand the pathogenesis more intuitively, some numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the obtained theories. This research is helpful to understand the pathogenesis of AD, so as to provide theoretical basis for the intervention and control of the disease.
