↵* Kd is expressed as nmol/L.
↵† Bmax for Aβ fibrils and mouse/human tissues is expressed as pmol/nmol of Aβ and pmol/g of tissue.
↵‡ BP = Bmax/Kd.
Data of Aβ fibrils were from 4 independent experiments, and each experiment was run in triplicate. Data of transgenic brains were from 4 mice (20 mo old), and each experiment was run in triplicate. Data of AD brain were from triplicate experiments. Data are mean ± SD.
Bmax = maximum binding value; mo = month.
