The aqueous phase of Alzheimer's disease brain contains assemblies built from ∼4 and ∼7 kDa Aβ species
3 Apr 2015
Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Much knowledge about amyloid β (Aβ) aggregation and toxicity has been acquired using synthetic peptides and mouse models, whereas less is known about soluble Aβ in human brain. METHODS: We analyzed aqueous extracts from multiple AD brains using an array of techniques. RESULTS: Brains can contain at least four different Aβ assembly forms including: (i) monomers, (ii) a ∼7 kDa Aβ species, and larger...
