A Mathematical model for Alzheimer's disease: An approach via stochastic homogenization of the Smoluchowski equation [PDF]
In this note, we apply the theory of stochastic homogenization to find the asymptotic behavior of the solution of a set of Smoluchowski's coagulation-diffusion equations with non-homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. This system is meant to model the aggregation and diffusion of $\beta$-amyloid peptide (A$\beta$) in the cerebral tissue, a process ...

Animal models of cerebral amyloid angiopathy
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), due to vascular amyloid β (Aβ) deposition, is a risk factor for intracerebral haemorrhage and dementia. CAA can occur in sporadic or rare hereditary forms, and is almost invariably associated with Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

Minocycline in Severe Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy: A Single‐Center Cohort Study
Background Evidence from animal studies suggests that minocycline may reduce lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) recurrence in cerebral amyloid angiopathy, possibly by inhibiting perivascular extracellular matrix degradation in cerebral small vessels ...

Early onset cerebral amyloid angiopathy following childhood exposure to cadaveric dura
Amyloid‐β transmission has been described in patients both with and without iatrogenic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease; however, there is little information regarding the clinical impact of this acquired amyloid‐β pathology during life.

Complement dysregulation in human tauopathies
Complement protein and activation product levels were assessed in post‐mortem frontal cortex from three distinct subtypes of Tauopathy: Corticobasal degeneration, globular glial tauopathy, and Pick's disease. Quantification of complement proteins by immunohistochemistry and ELISA showed elevation of key complement proteins (C1q) regulators (FI) and ...

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy impact on endothelium [PDF]
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is an age-associated disease characterized by amyloid deposition in cerebral and meningeal vessel walls. CAA is detected in the majority of the individuals with dementia and also in a large number of non-demented elderly individuals.

Circulating amyloid beta 1‐40 peptide as an associate of renal function decline
In this cohort study, we explored the association between amyloid‐beta 1‐40 (Aβ1‐40) plasma levels and kidney function and its clinical implications in 811 consecutive individuals with variable cardiovascular risk. Increased Aβ1‐40 was bidirectionally and consistently associated with worse kidney function at two different time points.

Research progress of cerebral amyloid angiopathy associated with inflammation
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy associated with inflammation (CAA⁃I) is a rare subtype of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), and is increasingly recognized by neurologists. CAA⁃Iischaracterized by the pathological hallmarks of both CAA and vasculitis.
