Abstract: | Active and passive immunization against fibrillar beta-amyloid of various mice models of Alzheimer's disease leads to the disaggregation and inhibition of plaque formation. Preliminary results showing improved behaviour and memory function obtained after administration of anti-beta-amyloid vaccines to transgenic mice encourage these and related approaches for testing in the treatment and prevention of Alzheimer's disease. |
