“…Since reduced Aβ burden has been shown to correlate with enhanced immune activation, and ABRA patients have been shown to mount an immune response to Aβ, we assessed immune activation in ABRA patients and CAA controls [13,14,17,18]. We counted CD68-positive macrophages and HLA-DR-positive microglia in brain parenchyma distant from sites of vascular inflammation and determined percentages of brain parenchyma showing positivity for the above-mentioned markers.…”

“…ABRA is thought to be caused by an inflammatory response to Aβ deposited in vessel walls [5,17,18,28]. The objective of this study was to investigate whether the inflammatory response to Aβ has any effect on the status of immune activation in the brain parenchyma at sites distant from vessels.…”

“…This hypothesis is supported by the observation that a subset of patients with Alzheimer's disease undergoing experimental therapy with an antibody directed toward Aβ developed a syndrome closely resembling spontaneous CAA-related inflammation [125]. Further, recent reports indicate that patients with CCA-related inflammation have antibodies directed toward Aβ, suggesting that an aberrant immunological response is responsible for the inflammation [126,127].…”
