Amyloid-β (Aβ), the key constituent of Alzheimer's disease (AD) plaques, has antimicrobial properties.
To investigate the association between plasma Aβ and antibodies against the AD-related pathogens herpes simplex virus (HSV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), and .
Plasma from 339 AD cases, obtained on average 9.4 years (±4.00) before diagnosis, and their matched controls were analyzed for Aβ and Aβ concentrations with Luminex xMAP technology and INNOBIA plasma Aβ-form assays. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were utilized for analyses of anti-HSV immunoglobulin (Ig) G, anti-HSV1 IgG, anti-HSV2 IgG, anti-CMV IgG, and anti- IgG. Follow-up samples were available for 150 of the cases.
Presence and levels of anti-HSV1 IgG, anti-HSV2 IgG, anti-CMV IgG, and anti- IgG did not correlate with concentrations of Aβ or Aβ in cases or controls.
Levels of plasma Aβ were not associated with antibodies against different AD-related pathogens.
淀粉样β蛋白(Aβ)是阿尔茨海默病(AD)斑块的关键成分,具有抗菌特性。
研究血浆Aβ与抗AD相关病原体单纯疱疹病毒(HSV)、巨细胞病毒(CMV)抗体之间的关联。
采用Luminex xMAP技术和INNOBIA血浆Aβ形式检测法,对339例AD患者(平均在诊断前9.4年(±4.00)采集)及其匹配对照的血浆进行Aβ和Aβ浓度分析。采用酶联免疫吸附测定法分析抗HSV免疫球蛋白(Ig)G、抗HSV1 IgG、抗HSV2 IgG、抗CMV IgG和抗IgG。150例患者有随访样本。
病例组和对照组中抗HSV1 IgG、抗HSV2 IgG、抗CMV IgG和抗IgG的存在及水平与Aβ或Aβ浓度均无相关性。
血浆Aβ水平与抗不同AD相关病原体的抗体无关。
