Protective properties of lysozyme on β-amyloid pathology: implications for Alzheimer disease
The hallmarks of Alzheimer disease are amyloid-β plaques and neurofibrillary tangles accompanied by signs of neuroinflammation. Lysozyme is a major player in the innate immune system and has recently been shown to prevent the aggregation of amyloid-β1-40 in vitro. In this study we found that patients with Alzheimer disease have increased lysozyme levels in the cerebrospinal fluid and lysozyme c...
متن کاملBiomarkers for early detection of Alzheimer pathology.
The increasing prevalence of Alzheimer's disease and the devastating consequences of late-life dementia motivates the drive to develop diagnostic biomarkers to reliably identify the pathology associated with this disorder. Strategies to accomplish this include the detection of altered levels of tau and amyloid in cerebrospinal fluid, the use of structural MRI to identify disease-specific patter...
متن کاملMetal Chelator Decreases Alzheimer β-Amyloid Plaques
five CQ-treated mice, and two showed no measurable Alzheimer -Amyloid Plaques A in the pellet fraction and no detectable A pathology by immunocytochemistry. The authors then examined the effects of a higher dose (30 mg/kg/d) for 9 weeks in older 21-month-old mice (n ϭ 20) as compared to Transgenic mice developing -amyloid (A) plaques sham-fed mice (n ϭ 19). This resulted in a 41% decrease ...
متن کاملFully Automated and Adaptive Detection of Amyloid Plaques in Stained Brain Sections of Alzheimer Transgenic Mice
Automated detection of amyloid plaques (AP) in post mortem brain sections of patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) or in mouse models of the disease is a major issue to improve quantitative, standardized and accurate assessment of neuropathological lesions as well as of their modulation by treatment. We propose a new segmentation method to automatically detect amyloid plaques in Congo Red staine...
متن کاملAmyloid-β and Astrocytes Interplay in Amyloid-β Related Disorders
Amyloid-β (Aβ) pathology is known to promote chronic inflammatory responses in the brain. It was thought previously that Aβ is only associated with Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome. However, studies have shown its involvement in many other neurological disorders. The role of astrocytes in handling the excess levels of Aβ has been highlighted in the literature. Astrocytes have a distinctive...
