Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is considered that the main pathology is caused by accumulation of amyloid β in the brain, may have an aspect as chronic inflammation disease. We validated a novel mechanism of AD pathology that an inflammatory reaction through the receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is synergistically enhanced by increased amyloid β and anti-RAGE autoantibody in AD patients. Increased antibody titer against RAGE was shown in plasma of the AD patients, while an enhancements of immunoreactivity and an amyloid β binding to leukocytes were not detected in the AD patients. In future, we will evaluate whether examine plasma levels of the inflammatory factors are up-regulated or not in AD patients.
