This can prevent
plaque deposition in the arteries and lower your risk for coronary heart disease.
High levels of «good» cholesterol and low levels of «bad» cholesterol are correlated with lower levels of the amyloid
plaque deposition in the brain that is a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease, in a pattern that mirrors the relationship between good and bad cholesterol in cardiovascular disease, UC Davis researchers have found.

deposition of fatty
plaques on artery walls, among other conditions.

The main hypothesis on the cause of Alzheimer's involves amyloid
deposition, the buildup of
plaques in the brain that impair neurological function; most biomedical efforts to tackle the disease have focused on this issue.
«Interestingly, though, amyloid beta
deposition was higher
in blood vessels than
in plaques, and this correlated with increases
in tau lesions,» said Melissa Edler, Ph.D., lead author and former doctoral student
in biomedical sciences at Kent State.
It is the condition where the arteries that supply blood to the heart muscle (coronary arteries) become narrowed due to a
deposition of fatty material (
plaque)
in the walls of the arteries.

deposition of amyloid - beta, a major protein ingredient of the
plaques that accumulate
in the brains of Alzheimerâ $ ™ s patients, is a central event
in the pathology of the disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by
deposition of amyloid - β (Aβ)
plaques and neurofibrillary tangles
in the brain, accompanied by synaptic dysfunction and neurodegeneration.
However, it is widely accepted that before the overt
deposition of amyloid
plaques and neurofibrillary tangles, the accumulation of amyloid - β (Aβ) peptides is one of the first steps
in the series of pathogenic changes that lead to neurodegeneration and dementia [5, 6].
Given the lack of definitive AD biomarkers
in humans, transgenic animal models of the amyloid pathology continue to be valuable tools to examine molecular changes preceding the
deposition of amyloid
plaques and associated pathology (i.e. late inflammation, neuritic dystrophy, etc.).
These results support the amyloid cascade of tau phosphorylation
in AD regarding phosphorylation of tau dependent on beta - amyloid
deposition in neuritic
plaques, but not of tau
in neurofibrillary tangles and threads.

deposition resembling
plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD), results
in a decrease of amyloid burden when compared with non-treated transgenic animals.
Alzheimer's disease results from the
deposition of amyloid
plaques in the brain.
High Vitamin C supplementation reduces amyloid
plaque deposition (cause of AD), blood brain barrier disruptions and mitochondrial dysfunction
in the brains.
Their high fiber content also plays an important role
in fighting
deposition of
