Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic amyloid-β peptide precursor (APP) mutations clustered around position 693 of APP-position 22 of the Aβ sequence--are commonly associated with congophilic amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and intracerebral hemorrhages. In contrast, the Osaka (E693Δ) intra-Aβ APP mutation shows a recessive pattern of inheritance that leads to AD-like dementia despite low brain amyloid on in vivo positron emission tomography...
