Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is a common pathological feature of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and it is also the hallmark of individuals with a rare autosomal dominant disorder known as hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis-Dutch type. We have shown previously that wild type A(beta) peptides are anti-angiogenic both in vitro and in vivo and could contribute to the compromised cerebrovascular...
