The recent discovery of an ATP-binding cassette transporter, ABCA1, as an important regulator of high density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism and reverse cholesterol transport has facilitated the identification of novel variants associated with HDL cholesterol deficiency states. We identified a subject
Amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta) cytotoxicity, the hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, implicates oxidative stress in both neurons and vascular cells, particularly endothelial cells. Consequently, antioxidants have shown neuroprotective activities against Abeta-induced cytotoxicity. Among the different
Stop codon mutations in the gene encoding the prion protein (PRNP) are very rare and have thus far only been described in two patients with prion protein cerebral amyloid angiopathy (PrP-CAA). In this report, we describe the clinical, histopathological and pathological prion protein (PrP(Sc))
Key pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease (AD), including amyloid plaques, cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and neurofibrillary tangles do not completely account for cognitive impairment, therefore other factors such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular pathologies, may contribute to AD.
