there may be amyloid and tau and there are different types of plaques and different types of neurofibrillary tangles but generally when we try and get rid of these plaques these neurodegenerative conditions don't get better so it's a very good analogy to the LDL thing that there's something else going on there under the surface and they may be even be responding to an injury and that's why we see them but they're not causing it from what I can tell either
