Understanding stochastic events that control the molecular events leading to the onset of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is not well understood. Though the bulk of the attention is attributed to the increased burden of detrimental proteoforms generated by the processing of Amyloid Precursor Protein, there lacks a clear consensus on how the molecular events that control the localization and trafficking contribute to the onset. Here, we discuss emerging evidence that indicate the role of nanoscale compositionality of the membrane and random diffusion at the millisecond time scale that contribute to the onset of AD. We believe that intuitive knowledge of nanobiology controlling the local rates of product formation holds the clue for next-generation therapeutics that might delay or halt the onset of AD.
