    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Brain : a journal of neurology 2005-04-07 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Neuritic plaques in the brain of Alzheimer's disease patients are characterized by beta-amyloid deposits associated with a glia-mediated inflammatory response.

  2. Amyloid beta-protein (Abeta)1-40 protects neurons from damage induced by Abeta1-42 in culture and in rat brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Journal of neurochemistry 2003-11-01 Biomarkers

    Previously, we found that amyloid beta-protein (Abeta)1-42 exhibits neurotoxicity, while Abeta1-40 serves as an antioxidant molecule by quenching metal ions and inhibiting metal-mediated oxygen radical generation.
