ABSTRACT
AIM and METHODS:
To detect the changes of amyloid protein (?-AP) and polypeptide growth factor levels and study their role in the possible pathogenesis of Alzheimers disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VD). We detected serum ?-AP, transforming growth factor- ?(TGF-?) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF-Ⅱ) levels by radio immunoassay in 8 patients with AD,15 patients with VD and 63 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease(ICVD) and 38 cases healthy volunteers.RESULTS:
In AD and VD groups, serum ?-AP, TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ were significantly higher than that in ICVD and control group; Serum ?- AP,TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ contents in ICVD group were obviously higher than that in normal control, the highest increase occurred in sequel of cerebral infarction(SCI) and vertebrobasislar ischemia(VBI) groups. There are positive correlation among ?- AP, TGF-? and IGF-Ⅱ in AD and VD groups.CONCLUSION:
①?- AP is a risk factor in the pathogenesis of AD and VD. ② TGF- ? and IGF-Ⅱ play roles in the neurotoxin effect that lead to dementia. ③ ?-AP plays a important role in formation of senile plaque.
