Pathology of the vessels in cerebral amyloid angiopathy.
[hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis]
We
review
here
current
data
on
congophilic
amyloid
angiopathy
(
congophilic
angiopathy
)
or
cerebral
amyloid
angiopathy
in
both
transmissible
and
non-transmissible
cerebral
amyloidoses
.
A
beta
peptide
is
the
amyloid
in
congophilic
angiopathy
of
Alzheimer
's
disease
,
and
in
majority
of
cases
of
Creutzfeld-
Jakob
disease
and
Gerstmann-
Sträussler-
Scheinker
disease
.
A
variant
of
Cystatin
C
is
the
amyloid
in
hereditary
cerebral
hemorrhage
with
amyloidosis
-
Icelandic
type
.
The
only
exception
is
a
curious
GSS
-like
family
from
Japan
characterized
by
145
stop
codon
at
the
PRNP
gene
.
Both
molecular
pathology
and
neuropathology
are
covered
by
this
review
.
