Abstract

A major neuropathological feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the deposition of amyloid beta (A beta) in the form of senile plaques. The A beta peptide exists both in a beta-pleated sheet fibrillar form in amyloid deposits and as a normal soluble protein in biological fluids. Numerous proteins have been identified immunohistochemically to be associated with senile plaques, where A beta is the major constituent. Some of the latter have also been suggested to be carriers of the normal soluble A beta (sA beta) including apolipoprotein J (apoJ), apolipoprotein E (apoE) and transthyretin (TTR). We have found, using several different methods, that numerous proteins can bind synthetic A beta peptides when high concentrations are used; however, using an affinity anti-sA beta column we confirm that apoJ is the major binding protein in pooled human cerebrospinal fluid. On the other hand it is known that apoE co-purifies with A beta biochemically extracted from senile plaques. In AD tissue there may be a change in the major apolipoprotein binding A beta from apoJ to apoE.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Clusterin interacts with soluble Aβ and forms complexes that cross the blood-brain barrier.

    “It interacts with the soluble form of Aβ in animal models of disease and binds soluble Aβ in a specific and reversible manner, forming complexes that have been shown to cross the blood-brain barrier [21][22][23][24] .”

    From Genome-wide association study identifies variants at CLU and PICALM associated with Alzheimer's disease (2009) · cites this paper as [23]

    The paper reports that apoJ (clusterin) is the major binding protein for soluble Aβ in normal human cerebrospinal fluid (Abstract; page unavailable). It says soluble Aβ can cross the blood-brain barrier, but does not establish that apoJ–Aβ complexes cross it. The cited passages also do not establish binding in animal disease models or that the binding is specific and reversible. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
