Abstract

Introduction: The levels and distribution of amyloid deposits in the brain does not correlate well with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) progression. Therefore, it is likely that Amyloid-precursor-protein proteolytic fragments other than beta-amyloid contribute to the onset of AD. Methods: We developed a sensitive assay adapted to the detection of C99, the direct precursor of beta-amyloid. Three postmortem groups were studied: control with normal and stable cognition; subjects with moderate AD, and individuals with severe AD. The amount of C99 and beta-amyloid was quantified and correlated with the severity of AD. Results: C99 accumulates in vulnerable neurons, and its levels correlate with the degree of cognitive impairment in patients suffering from AD. In contrast, beta-amyloid levels are increased in both vulnerable and resistant brain areas. Discussion: These results raise the possibility that C99, rather than beta-amyloid plaques, is responsible for the death of nerve cells in Alzheimer’s disease.

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.
