Congophilic compact amyloid plaques are reduced after 2 months of anti-Aβ antibody administration. A-D, Congo red staining in the hippocampus of APP transgenic mice receiving the control antibody for 3 months (A), the anti-Aβ antibody for 1 month (B), the anti-Aβ antibody for 2 months (C), or the anti-Aβ antibody for 3 months (D). Magnification, 40×. Scale bar, 120 μm.E, Quantification of the percent area occupied by the Congored-positive stain in the frontal cortex and hippocampus. The single bar shows the value for APP transgenic mice receiving the control antibody for 3 months. The line shows the values for APP transgenic mice receiving the anti-Aβ antibody for 1, 2, and 3 months. **p < 0.01. CA1, Cornu ammonis 1; CA3, cornu ammonis 3; DG, dentate gyrus; F, hippocampal figure.
