  1. Pathological human cases of Alzheimer’s disease (AD, Braak stages 4–5; n=7) and non-AD controls (CO, n=3) were confirmed in tissue samples from the temporo-parietal grey matter cortices/frontal cortex that typically are affected by AD pathology using immunohistochemistry [77, 78]. Aβ40 and Aβ42 levels in homogenised whole-brain extracts from corresponding patients were measured by MSD assay and normalised to the total protein content as per the BCA assay.
