Background/AimsRapid removal of plasma amyloid-β (Aβ) by blood purification may serve as a peripheral Aβ sink from the brain for Alzheimer’s disease therapy. We investigated the reduction of plasma Aβ during hemodialysis and cognitive states.MethodsAβ concentrations and Mini-Mental State Examinations (MMSE) were investigated in 37 hemodialysis patients (68.9±4.1 years).ResultsThe dialyzers effectively removed Aβ 1–40 and Aβ 1–42, 63.9±14.4 and 51.6±17.0% at 4 h dialysis, resulting in the reduction of Aβs in whole-body circulation by 51.1±8.9 and 32.7±12.0%, respectively. Although the plasma Aβs before dialysis (750.8±171.3 pg/ml for Aβ 1–40) were higher than those reported for Alzheimer’s disease patients, the cognitive states of hemodialysis patients were relatively normal, especially of longer dialysis vintages.ConclusionsDialyzers effectively reduced Aβs in whole-body circulation. Repeated rapid decrease of plasma Aβs might maintain cognitive state.
