Metal 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 کاملSpecific self-monitoring of metal-associated amyloid-β peptide disaggregation by a fluorescent chelator.
A dual-functional fluorescent chelator can specifically target and disassemble metal-associated Aβ aggregates and simultaneously self-monitor the disaggregation by fluorescence in brain homogenates of mice with Alzheimer's disease.
متن کاملDefined neurofilament, tau, and beta-amyloid precursor protein epitopes distinguish Alzheimer from non-Alzheimer senile plaques.
Eight antisera and one monoclonal antibody to synthetic peptides that corresponded to domains extending over the entire length of the beta-amyloid precursor protein (beta-APP), and an antiserum to the full-length 695-amino acid form of the beta-APP, were raised to probe the composition of the core and corona of senile plaques (SPs). We localized distinct beta-APP domains, including the beta-amy...
متن کاملReversible in vitro growth of Alzheimer disease beta-amyloid plaques by deposition of labeled amyloid peptide.
The salient pathological feature of Alzheimer disease (AD) is the presence of a high density of amyloid plaques in the brain tissue of victims. The plaques are predominantly composed of human beta-amyloid peptide (beta A4), a 40-mer whose neurotoxicity is related to its aggregation. Radioiodinated human beta A4 is rapidly deposited in vitro from a dilute (less than 10 pM) solution onto neuritic...
متن کاملMR microscopy of human amyloid-β deposits: characterization of parenchymal amyloid, diffuse plaques, and vascular amyloid.
Cerebral deposits of amyloid-β peptides (Aβ) form the neuropathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). In the brain, Aβ can aggregate as insoluble fibrils present in amyloid plaques and vascular amyloid, or as diffuse plaques consisting of mainly non-fibrillar Aβ. Previously, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown to be capable of detecting...
