Abstract:Senile plaques and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA)?are well-documented in various mammals, and several species even exhibit neurofibrillary tangle (NFT). However, we know far less about whether such symptoms are present in birds. Therefore, here we clarified the occurrence and pathogenesis of avian aβ-related lesions, analyzing the aβ amino-acid sequence across 28 birds at multiple life stages, representing 15 species, 14 genera, and 9 nine families.?We also determined the expected aβ amino-acid sequence aft… Show more
