T cells specifically targeted to amyloid plaques enhance plaque clearance in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease.
Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) exhibit substantial accumulation of amyloid-beta (Abeta) plaques in the brain. Here, we examine whether Abeta vaccination can facilitate the migration of T lymphocytes to specifically target Abeta plaques and consequently enhance their removal. Using a new...
