## Abstract To explore the clinical effects of inflammation associated with vascular deposits of the amyloid Ξ² peptide (AΞ²), we analyzed 42 consecutive patients with pathologically diagnosed cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) for evidence of an inflammatory response.

## Abstract Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) results from deposition of Ξ²βamyloid in the media and adventitia of small arteries and capillaries of the leptomeninges and cerebral cortex and is a major cause of lobar intracerebral hemorrhage and cognitive impairment in the elderly. CAA is associated
In search of genetic risk factors of sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), we investigated the association of a polymorphism in the signal peptide sequence of alpha1-antichymotrypsin (ACT) with the severity of CAA in 155 autopsy cases of the elderly, including 48 patients with Alzheimer's dise
