Here, we report a case of a 63-year-old woman (at the time of death) with the clinical history consistent with Alzheimer D, an autopsy with brain histopathology supporting Alzheimer disease (AD), congophylic angiopathy, and Lewy Body pathology, and whose medical genetic testing reveals a novel PSEN2 mutation of adenosine replacing cytosine at ...
A Case Report of a 37-Year-Old Alzheimer's Disease Patient with
INTRODUCTION. Amyloid deposition has long been considered one of the pathognomonic markers of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Moreover, disruption in amyloid hypothesis has been frequently discussed as important targets of intervention for many years. 1 To date, most validated research results have been narrowed down to yield a model for biological trajectory of AD, where amyloid deposition far ...
