Red cell interactions with amyloid-β1–40 fibrils in a murine model

Vascular amyloidosis in Alzheimer's disease (AD) results in the exposure of red blood cells to β-amyloid fibrils (Aβ). The potential in vivo ramifications of this exposure have been investigated by injecting Aβ1–40 alone or Aβ-bound mouse red blood cells into the circulation of C57BL/6 mice. Re...
