Beta-Amyloid Removal

Meaning

Beta-Amyloid Removal refers to the biological processes and clinical strategies aimed at clearing aggregated amyloid-beta peptides from the central nervous system, particularly the brain parenchyma. These peptides are neurotoxic protein fragments whose pathological accumulation is strongly associated with cognitive decline and neurodegenerative conditions. The clinical objective is to facilitate their efflux, preventing the formation of senile plaques which disrupt synaptic transmission and neuronal integrity. Effective removal is a critical target in maintaining long-term cognitive function and supporting neurological longevity.
