The abnormal deposition of beta-amyloid proteins in the brain is one of the major histopathological hallmarks of Alzheimers disease. Currently available intravital microscopy techniques for high-resolution plaque visualization commonly involve highly invasive procedures and are limited to a small field-of-view within the rodent brain. Here, we report the transcranial detection of amyloid-beta deposits at the whole brain scale with 20 m resolution in APP/PS1 and arcA{beta} mouse models of Alzheimers disease amyloidosis using a large-field multifocal (LMI) fluorescence microscopy technique. Highly sensitive and specific detection of amyloid-beta deposits at a single plaque level in APP/PS1 and arcA{beta} mice was facilitated using luminescent conjugated oligothiophene HS-169. Immunohistochemical staining with HS-169, anti-A{beta} antibody 6E10, and conformation antibodies OC (fibrillar) of brain tissue sections further showed that HS-169 resolved compact parenchymal and vessel-associated amyloid deposits. The novel imaging platform offers new prospects for in vivo studies into Alzheimers disease mechanisms in animal models as well as longitudinal monitoring of therapeutic responses at a single plaque level.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
