β2-Microglobulin (β2M) is an amyloidogenic protein. β2M coaggregates with β-amyloid (Aβ) in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease and enhances Aβ deposition. β2M is essential for Aβ neurotoxicity in vivo, and neutralization of pathogenetic β2M–Aβ aggregates ameliorates the amyloid pathology and cognitive deficits associated with disease in a mouse model.
