Compensatory Paradigm Nexus
Hallmark pathological features (amyloid, tau) reinterpreted as initially protective responses that become pathologically reinforced over time.
Converging Mechanisms
- Abeta as antioxidant response to lipid peroxidation (Ramsden)
- Abeta/tau as compensatory for excitatory insufficiency (Moosmann: NMDA hypofunction)
- Lipid raft restructuring as allostatic adaptation (Rappoport)
- Abeta monomer depletion drives compensatory overproduction (Huang)
Key Concept
Adaptive responses become pathologically reinforced over time. What begins as neuroprotection eventually accelerates neurodegeneration.
