Editing Angiopathy (section)

==Causes==
The cause of Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy are unknown. Sometimes it can be hereditary, however, there have been cases where it is developed in the elderly, especially in people over 55 years of age.<ref name=":0" />

High blood sugar is the primary cause of diabetic angiopathy. The [[endothelium]], a smooth layer of the cell wall, is weakened and the artery-lining cells are injured. Rough patches develop along the endothelium and may promote the accumulation of deposits known as plaque. These deposits gradually harden and become more noticeable over time, restricting [[Stenosis|(stenosing)]] the artery and impairing normal blood flow. Different organs receive insufficient oxygen-rich blood due to the bottleneck that was formed.<ref name=":1" />
