Table 5. Quantitative autoradiography.

Brain tissue Binding of 99m Tc-VHH Competion binding
Monomeric Aβ Fibrillar Aβ
ng (± sd) ng (± sd) ng (± sd)
APP/PS1 98.8 (±20,7)* 60.1 (±22.2) 31.4 (±14.3)
Wildtype 86.4 (±14.8) 56.4 (±19.5) 27.1 (±12.5)
AD human 190.1 (±73.5)* 81.4 (± N.D.) 42.3 (±29.2)
Control human 102.3 (±30.2) 27.2 (± N.D.) 49.9 (±17.4)

Differences in radioactivity were measured after application of 1 µg 99mTc-pa2H to human and murine APP/PS1 brain sections.

Statistical difference (p<0.05) between either murine or human control versus Aβ bearing sections.
