Abstract
The present disclosure relates to the detection of beta amyloid protein as an Alzheimer's disease-causing factor in the palatine tonsil and a use thereof and, more specifically, to the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease by identifying the expression of beta amyloid and/orin a tonsillar sample. The present disclosure can diagnose Alzheimer's disease through the expression of beta amyloid and/orin a palatine tonsil tissue and, furthermore, can be very advantageously used for revealing the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease and for treating Alzheimer's disease.
