Abstract
ⶠAmyloid plaques are heavily and significantly enriched in Herpes simplex associated proteins. ⶠPlaques and tangles also contain numerous immune-related proteins. ⶠImmune activation and the complement membrane attack complex are present in Alzheimer's disease neurones. ⶠPlaques and tangles are cemeteries for a battle between the host immune network and Herpes simplex. ⶠThis battle has been won at the expense of neuronal destruction.
