This review mainly focuses on the mechanisms of Aβ elimination and the drug development to facilitate Aβ clearance. The perivascular lymphatic drainage system, one of the Aβ clearance mechanisms, is closely associated with AD and CAA (Carare et al., 2013). In addition, the possibility of drugs enhancing perivascular drainage as well as future strategies for AD and CAA treatment will be reviewed.
