摘要
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder in which vascular pathology plays an important role. Since the beta-amyloid peptide (A beta) is a critical factor in this disease, we examined its relationship to fibrin clot formation in AD. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that fibrin clots formed in the presence of A beta are structurally abnormal and resistant to degradation. Fibrin(ogen) was observed in blood vessels positive for amyloid in mouse and human AD samples, and intravital brain imaging of clot formation and dissolution revealed abnormal thrombosis and fibrinolysis in AD mice. Moreover, depletion of fibrinogen lessened cerebral amyloid angiopathy pathology and reduced cognitive impairment in AD mice. These experiments suggest that one important contribution of A beta to AD is via its effects on fibrin clots, implicating fibrin(ogen) as a potential critical factor in this disease.
