Executive Summary
While researches continue to debate the molecular causes of Alzheimer's disease, they do agree that pathological deposits of the beta-amyloid protein are responsible for some of the disease's destructive effects. Researchers at the University of Washington believe they have found a novel aproach that interferes with the harmful formation of amyloid deposits, and have founded ProteoTech Inc. to develop proteoglycan technologies.
