Here is an article we recommend that explains the difference between amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles that present in Alzheimer's disease, by Y. Smith. Key points from this article: -Dr. Alois Alzheimer first described both amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles early in the twentieth century, who noticed the unique structure were evident in patients with certain symptoms, now known as Alzheimer’s disease.... -Amyloid plaques consist of dense, mostly insoluble clumps in the spaces between the nerve cells in the brain tissue. -Neurofibrillary tangles involve the twisting of tau protein threads of the nerve cells in the brain tissue. -The difference between the plaques and tangles lies in their structure and effect on the nerve cells in the brain tissues. Amyloid plaques are clusters that form in the spaces between the nerve cells, whereas the neurofibrillary tangles are a knot of the brain cells. Both are thought to interfere with the nervous messages within the brain tissue.
