A “snowball hypothesis” is proposed: the accumulation of intraneuronal NFTs caused by extracellular Aβ42 and the increase in intraneURonal APP proteolytic products (CTFs and Aβs) could cause cellular organelle stress that leads to neurodegeneration in AD, which then resembles the formation of abnormal protein ”snowballs” both inside and outside of neurons.

The presence of α1-antichymotrypsin, complement factors and P component, but not of common serum proteins in both the amorphous and congophilic plaques, indicates that these three proteins may have a pathogenetic role in amyloid formation.
A68 proteins in Alzheimer's disease are composed of several tau isoforms in a phosphorylated state which affects their electrophoretic mobilities.

The results further support the notion that PHF contain abnormally phosphorylated tau in an aggregated state, and indicate that these abnormally phosphate-filled tau forms are composed of several tau isoforms and that the full length of the tau molecule is present in these polypeptides.

A peptide derived from the amyloid precursor may be neurotoxic, and conditioned medium from these cells was toxic to neurons in primary hippocampal cultures, and the toxic agent could be removed by immunoabsorption with an antibody directed against theAmyloid polypeptide.

It is demonstrated that in this kindred, which shows linkage to chromosome 21 markers, there is a point mutation in the APP gene that causes an amino-acid substitution close to the carboxy terminus of the β-amyloid peptide.
Amyloid A4 protein and its precursor in Down's syndrome and Alzheimer's disease.
- Medicine, BiologyThe New England journal of medicine

Immunocytochemical studies of brain tissue from 26 patients with Down's syndrome showed that the deposition of A4 protein amyloid began in these patients approximately 50 years earlier than it began in 127 normal aging subjects studied previously, although the rate of deposition was the same.
A4 amyloid protein deposition and the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease

If A4 protein deposition is accepted as a definitive marker for AD, then the age-related prevalence of AD increases dramatically, and to what degree these prevalence rates are reflected in clinically detectable impairment of higher cortical function remains to be determined.
Tau in Alzheimer's disease and Down's syndrome is insoluble and abnormally phosphorylated.
- BiologyThe Biochemical journal
- 1991
It is concluded that, in Alzheimer's disease, a fraction of tau has a modified phosphorylation state and a decreased solubility; these modifications may precede formation of the neurofibrillary tangles characteristic of Alzheimer’s disease and Down's syndrome in adults.

Results indicate a neuronal response to amyloid, when preparations of mature plaque amyloids isolated from the AD brain are injected into the rat brain, and exert neurotoxic effects and induce antigens found in theAD brain.
Genetic linkage studies suggest that Alzheimer's disease is not a single homogeneous disorder
- Biology, PsychologyNature

The inheritance of five polymorphic DNA markers from the proximal long arm of chromosome 21 in a large unselected series of pedi-grees with familial Alzheimer's disease suggests that Alzheimer's Disease is not a single entity, but rather results from genetic defects on chromosome 21 and from other genetic or nongenetic factors.
Alzheimer's paired helical filaments share epitopes with neurofilament side arms.

It is proposed that in tangle‐bearing neurons, neurofilaments are degraded by proteases and that it is fragments of the side arms which contribute to the composition of PHF.
