Isolation and partial characterization of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaque core in Alzheimer's disease: immunohistological studies.
Fractions enriched in neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) and amyloid fibrils were isolated from the cerebral cortex of three cases of senile dementia of the Alzheimer type. Distilled water suspensions of these fractions were excluded from all pore size gels and resisted digestion with various proteolytic enzymes. Formic acid/chloroform treatment of each fraction resulted in the appearance of 4,000-6...
متن کاملDiffuse neurofibrillary tangles with calcification: a new presenile dementia.
The term "diffuse neurofibrillary tangles with calcification" (DNTC) is proposed for a new form of presenile dementia. It is characterised by slowly progressive cortical dementia in the presenium, localised temporal or temporofrontal lobar atrophy, numerous neurofibrillary tangles widespread in the cerebral cortex, and pronounced calcareous deposits; 16 cases of DNTC, have been reported.
متن کاملDecreased circulating lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 levels are associated with coronary plaque regression in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
OBJECTIVE Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) is a vascular-specific inflammatory enzyme, of which increases are associated with cardiovascular events. However, the relationship between circulating Lp-PLA2 levels and coronary plaque volume has not been clarified in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS We studied 40 patients with ACS (age, 61.4 ± 8.0 years; male, ...
متن کاملDecreased cathepsin K levels in human atherosclerotic plaques are associated with plaque instability
Investigating the determinants and dynamics of atherosclerotic plaque instability is a key area of current cardiovascular research. Extracellular matrix degradation from excessive proteolysis induced by enzymes such as cathepsin K (Cat K) is implicated in the pathogenesis of unstable plaques. The current study assessed the expression of Cat K in human unstable atherosclerotic plaques. Specimens...
متن کاملImmunostaining of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's senile dementia with a neurofilament antiserum.
Using anti-chicken brain neurofilament antisera, Alzheimer's neurofibrillary tangles from two patients with senile dementia were stained by immunofluorescence and by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase procedure in cryostat sections of hippocampus and frontal cortex. In sections of cerebellum obtained from the same patients, the distribution of immunostaining was the same as that observed in experime...
