Reversible 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 کاملPharmacological removal of serum amyloid P component from intracerebral plaques and cerebrovascular Aβ amyloid deposits in vivo.
Human amyloid deposits always contain the normal plasma protein serum amyloid P component (SAP), owing to its avid but reversible binding to all amyloid fibrils, including the amyloid β (Aβ) fibrils in the cerebral parenchyma plaques and cerebrovascular amyloid deposits of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). SAP promotes amyloid fibril formation in vitro, contributes...
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 کاملFluselenamyl: A Novel Benzoselenazole Derivative for PET Detection of Amyloid Plaques (Aβ) in Alzheimer’s Disease
Fluselenamyl (5), a novel planar benzoselenazole shows traits desirable of enabling noninvasive imaging of Aβ pathophysiology in vivo; labeling of both diffuse (an earlier manifestation of neuritic plaques) and fibrillar plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain sections, and remarkable specificity for mapping Aβ compared with biomarker proteins of other neurodegenerative diseases. Employing AD...
