This disorder is believed to occur due to the combined effects of genes, lifestyle, and several environmental factors as well. The causes are not yet fully understood, but it is clear, that the disorder damages brain cells and kills them. The disease proceeds with more and more brain cell damage.
There are two types of abnormalities that are the primary reason behind this problem:
1. Formation of plaques in the brain
The plaques are the clumps of protein, called as beta amyloid. These clumps are known to damage and destroy the cell in the brain and in turn affects the cell to cell communication.

The normal functioning of tau protein is essential in order to transport essential nutrients and minerals in the brain. But in this disorder the thread of this tau protein twist into abnormal tangles and hence, leads to failure of the transport system. This in turn leads to death of brain cells.
