Comment | Senile plaques (characterized by the accumulation of proteinsin the form of beta-pleated sheet fibrils, which are composed mainly of a 42-amino-acid peptide known as beta-amyloid (Ab), and neurofibrillary tangles, mainly composed by a cytoskeletal hyperphosphorylated protein tau) in AD brains are associated with reactive astrocytes and activated microglial cells, which overexpress cytokines and acute-phase proteins. |

Comment | The HO-1 gene is redox regulated, and its activation represents a protective system potentially active against brain oxidative injury. Its expression in AD patients brain is significantly increased, and the spatial distribution of HO-1 expression in diseased brain is essentially identical to that of pathological expression of tau. |
