Is Alzheimer's disease an apolipoprotein E amyloidosis?
Open accessAbstract
The presence of the apolipoprotein E4 allele has been identified as a major risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease. Apolipoprotein E has also been found immunohistochemically in Alzheimer's disease lesions. We biochemically isolated amyloid beta from senile plaques and found that a carboxyl-terminal fragment (residues 216-299) of apolipoprotein E co-purified. In vitro this fragment from recombinant apolipoprotein E could form amyloid-like fibrils, which were Congo-red positive. Thus senile plaques may contain both amyloid beta and apolipoprotein E amyloid fibrils.

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.
