Abstract
A soluble derivative of low-density lipoprotein receptor related protein-1 (sLRP-1) binds directly to Alzheimer's amyloid-β peptide (Aβ). This binding may be used to detect Aβ or to separate Aβ from the rest of a subject's body. In Alzheimer's disease, it may be used to provide diagnostic results by detecting Aβ, treatment by removing Aβ, or both.
