A Simulation Model of Periarterial Clearance of Amyloid-beta from the Brain
The accumulation of soluble and insoluble amyloid-beta (A-beta) in the brain indicates failure of elimination of A-beta from the brain with age and Alzheimer's disease. There is a variety of mechanisms for elimination of A-beta from the brain. They include the action of microglia and enzymes to...
