“Less common features include clubbing, periostitis, amyloidosis, and granulomatous disease of bone and joint.”

“That approach could theoretically be used to treat conditions like Alzheimer's: the beta amyloids that accumulate in the brain are thought to weaken synaptic connections, and, in so doing, inactivate certain memories.”

“Anat Frydman-Marom and Carsten Sachse looked at protein fragments known as beta amyloids, which are regarded as the primary cause of Alzheimer's disease.”
