Serum amyloid P component accumulates and persists in neurones following traumatic brain injury

The mechanisms underlying neurodegenerative sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are poorly understood. The normal plasma protein, serum amyloid P component (SAP), which is normally rigorously excluded from the brain, is directly neurocytotoxic for cerebral neurones and also binds to Aβ amyloid...
