Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase (SSAO) catalyses the oxidative deamination of a variety of endogenous substrates, such as methylamine and aminoacetone, to produce highly reactive aldehydes, which are capable of inducing protein cross-linkage, beta amyloid (Abeta) aggregation and advanced glycation end-product formation. In the brain, SSAO is exclusively located on the blood vessels. Deposits of Abeta, the hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), are closely associated with cerebral blood vessels, that is, cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). In the present study, we examined whether SSAO-mediated deamination contributes to CAA in AD. We employed immunohistochemistry to examine the colocalization of SSAO and Abeta in post mortem brains of AD patients. To assess the role of SSAO-mediated deamination in the deposition of Abeta on blood vessel walls, we developed an in vitro blood vessel model using sections of human umbilical cord. We found a strong expression of SSAO colocalized with Abeta deposits on the blood vessels in AD brains. We also demonstrated that SSAO-mediated deamination increases the deposition of Abeta onto blood vessel walls. Our results support the hypothesis that cerebral vascular SSAO-catalysed deamination contributes to CAA in AD brains.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
