Abstract

Amyloid-beta protein (Abeta) is implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease because of its neurotoxicity and the ability to trigger local inflammation. Compounds that interact with the amino acids of the N-terminal region or interfere with aggregation can reduce the Abeta biologic activity. We evaluated the effect of heparin on Abeta (1-42) neurotoxicity and on its ability to activate complement and contact system. On differentiated PC12 cells, a reliable model of neuronal cells, heparin at the doses of 10 and 20 microg/ml significantly counteracted Abeta cytotoxicity as assessed by measuring MTT conversion. We then explored the effect of heparin on Abeta (1-42)-induced complement and contact system activation. Abeta (1-42) was incubated with heparin in presence of normal plasma as the source of complement and contact system factors. Heparin reduced, in a dose-dependent manner, complement and contact system activation, assessed by measuring the degree of C4 and high molecular weight kininogen cleavage. The present data show that heparin can attenuate neurotoxic and pro-inflammatory activity of Abeta and suggest that this drug could represent a new strategy to reduce the progressive neurodegeneration in AD.

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.
