Figure 8From: Vaccination with a non-human random sequence amyloid oligomer mimic results in improved cognitive function and reduced plaque deposition and micro hemorrhage in Tg2576 miceNo increase in incidence of microhemorrhage in 3A and IAPP oligomer mimic vaccinated mice. A. Representative images of Prussian blue stained sections. Arrowheads point to typical stage 1 microhemorrhages. Scale bar: 25 microns. B. The incidence of microhemorage was counted after staining for hemosiderin. Both the Aß oligomer mimic and Aß fibril vaccinated groups display a much higher incidence of microhemorrhage than the control, 3A or IAPP oligomer vaccinated groups. The mean counts from 3 different sections of each animal is shown +/− the standard error of the mean (n = 8). ***P < 0.001. The 3A oligomer mimics and IAPP vaccinated group.Back to article page
