1 1212427 The reduced incidence of amyloidosis following BAPN adminsitration cannot be due to lysosomal enzyme degradation of the amyloid as the activity of cathepsin D and acid phosphatase is decreased during this process.
2 12665674 Serum titers to Abeta were significantly elevated in AD patients and Abeta antibodies were found in association with amyloid plaques in their brains, but there was no evidence of cell-mediated immune responses to Abeta in the patients.
3 15241501 Both immune sera and monoclonal antibodies solubilized preformed aggregates of Abeta42 in vitro and recognized amyloid plaques in brain sections of mice transgenic for human APP.
4 16187407 Local serum amyloid A (SAA) formation may be involved in deposition of AA-amyloid induced by conformational change of SAA resulting in amyloid formation, having tremendous food safety implications.
5 19150380 Plasmids encoding Abeta and an attenuated caspase were less effective in reducing amyloid pathology than those encoding Abeta alone.
6 19150380 Thus, immunization with a plasmid encoding Abeta alone drives an attenuated immune response that is sufficient to clear amyloid pathology in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
7 19553436 Nevertheless, by providing evidence that reducing amyloid pathology also reduces nonmutant tau pathology and blocks neuron loss, these data support the development of amyloid-lowering therapies for disease-modifying treatment of AD.
8 20205640 Abeta immunotherapy has been shown to induce a marked reduction in amyloid burden and an improvement in cognitive function in animal models.
9 20640189 Tmem176b expression was highest in the inner zone of amyloid plaques, whereas TREM2 expression was highest in the outer zone.
10 20640189 Induced expression of TREM2 occurred co-incident with detection of thioflavine-S-positive amyloid deposits.
11 21117449 Transgenic mice with brain Abeta plaques immunized with aggregated Abeta have reduced amyloid burden and improved cognitive functions.
12 17137722 Vaccination with Abeta(1-42) and treatment with NCX-2216, a novel nitric oxide releasing flurbiprofen derivative, have each been shown separately to reduce amyloid deposition in transgenic mice and have been suggested as potential therapies for Alzheimer's disease.
13 21252259 I-FABP, LPS, and sCD14 were increased and EndoCAb was decreased in study subjects, compared with healthy volunteers. sCD14 level correlated with levels of IL-6, C-reactive protein, serum amyloid A and D-dimer. sCD14, a marker of monocyte response to LPS, is an independent predictor of mortality in HIV infection.
14 14635031 Active immunization with fibrillar beta-amyloid peptide (Abeta(42)) as well as passive transfer of anti-Abeta antibodies significantly reduces Abeta plaque deposition, neuritic dystrophy, and astrogliosis in the brain of mutant amyloid precursor protein (APP)-transgenic mice.
15 18003852 Here, we describe a second generation epitope vaccine composed of two copies of Abeta(1-11) fused with the promiscuous nonself T cell epitope, PADRE (pan human leukocyte antigen DR-binding peptide) that completely eliminates the autoreactive T cell responses and induces humoral immune responses in amyloid precursor protein transgenic 2576 mice with pre-existing AD-like pathology.
16 20493257 These experiments demonstrate the efficacy of a novel vaccine approach for Alzheimer's disease where immunization with an Abeta(1-40/1-42) amyloid-specific binding and blocking peptide is used to inhibit the development of neuropathology and cognitive dysfunction.
17 12230303 Some cases of AD are caused by mutations in presenilin-1 (PS1), and it has been shown that PS1 mutations perturb neuronal calcium homeostasis, promote increased production of amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta), and render neurons vulnerable to synaptic dysfunction, excitotoxicity, and apoptosis.
