Insights into the mechanisms of action of anti‐Aβ antibodies in Alzheimer's disease mouse models

Abstract: A number of hypotheses regarding how anti-Abeta antibodies alter amyloid deposition have been postulated, yet there is no consensus as to how Abeta immunotherapy works. We have examined the in vivo binding properties, pharmacokinetics, brain penetrance, and alterations in Abeta levels after a single peripheral dose of anti-Abeta antibodies to both wild-type (WT) and young non-Abeta depositing APP and BRI-Abeta42 mice. The rapid rise in plasma Abeta observed after antibody (Ab) administration is attributable to… Show more

“…Whereas both systemicand icv-delivered anti-A␤ antibodies entered the brain parenchyma, only the systemic-delivered antibodies were detected at substantial levels in the plasma to engage the peripheral sink mechanism. That said, a recent study has suggested that an increase in plasma A␤ (postulated to represent an efflux of cerebral A␤) may simply be caused by an increase in the half-life of plasma A␤ when bound to a systemically administered anti-A␤ antibody (27). Regardless of whether the peripheral sink mechanism mediates the outcomes of systemic anti-A␤ immunotherapy, it is unlikely to play a role in the reduction of parenchymal plaques and CAA by icv-infused anti-A␤ IgG 1 .…”

“…Recent studies have demonstrated a spike in CSF anti-A␤ antibody concentration, which represents only a small fraction (Յ1%) of the plasma concentration achieved following systemic delivery (27,59). In our study, plasma concentrations of Ϸ200 nM were achieved after systemic delivery of 6E10.…”
