Although the exact mechanisms remain unclear, the aberrant elevation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS) levels from several endogenous and exogenous processes in the brain may affect cell signaling and trigger cellular senescence inflammation and pyroptosis.

These are reflected by changes in circulating immune markers, including C-reactive protein (CRP) [26], interleukin-6 (IL-6) [27], tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) [28] and its soluble receptors (tumor necrosis factor receptor I (TNFR-I) and tumor necrosis factor receptor II (TNFR-II)) [28], vascular cell adhesion molecule I (VCAM-I) [29], d-dimer [30], and sirtuin signaling [31,32].

The drawback of chronic subclinical inflammation is that it is an essential risk factor for increasing the incidence of degenerative diseases such as AD [33–35].
