peptide selectively immunolocalize to AVs within dystrophic neurites of PS1/APP mice. (A) Antibodies to PS1 strongly decorate neuritic plaques. (B) Immunogold-EM reveals that PS1 localizes principally to the limiting membranes of the AV, while mitochondria (Mito) or plasma membrane (PM) are unlabeled. (C) A
42 immunoreactivity is detected within AVs of dystrophic neurites by silver-enhanced immunogold labeling. Reprinted with permission (Yu et al., 2005).
