  1. It would certainly make sense if the medial temporal lobe is affected early and perhaps most agressively by AD, as the early clinical symptoms seems to suggest. Molecular studies also indicate that enzymatic activity is changed profoundly initially in both the temporal lobe and the hippocampus buried deep inside it.
