摘要

The brains of Alzheimer's disease patients contain extracellular A#beta# amyloid deposits (senile plaques). Although genetic evidence causally links A#beta# deposition to the disease, the mechanism by which A#beta# disrupts cortical func- tion is unknown. Using triple immunofluorescent confocal microscopy and three-dimensional reconstructions, we found that neuronal processes that cross through an A#beta# deposit are likely to have a radically changed morphology. We modeled the electrophysiological effect of this changed morphology and found a predicted delay of several milliseconds over an average plaque. We propose that this type of delay, played out among thousands of plaques throughout neocortical areas, disrupts the precise temporal firing patterns of action potentials, contributing directly to neural system failure and dementia.
