Complementary high-resolution imaging techniques are employed to investigate the plaque penetrability and the extracellular space (ECS) rheology in a mouse model ofAD. Two-photon shadow imaging in vivo conﬁrms that a dense ring of cells surrounds cortical amyloid plaques but highlights the diﬀusional penetrability of the amyloid core. Quantum dot tracking unveils that ECS diﬀusional parameters are heterogeneous in and around plaques, with an elevated diﬀusivity within and around plaques compared to  \nwild-type-tissue. The amyloid core shows low nanoparticle density, varying by plaque phenotype. Carbon nanotube tracking conﬁrms these altered local rheological properties at the level of the whole cortex of AD mice. Finally, the extracellular matrix is found to be dysregulated within the amyloid plaque, which may account for the observed alterations in diﬀusivity. This study provides fresh insights for understanding A􀀂 plaque penetration, a prerequisite for therapeutic development.  \nfunction, especially in the expanding aging population, becoming a signiﬁcant socioeconomic burden for healthcare systems. [1] A recognized hallmark of the disease is the presence of amyloid plaques, primarily composed of misfolded amyloid 􀀂 (A􀀂) peptides, in the brain’s extracellular space (ECS) . [2,3]  \nAmong recent strategies to tackle the disease, amyloid plaque clearance and immune system modulation have raised hopes but still suﬀer from unsatisfactory outcomes. [4] As a consequence, the penetrability of brain tissue has come into focus as a potentially pivotal determinant oftherapeutic eﬃcacy.[5] However, how diﬀerent substances can navigate within the ECS remains poorly understood, let alone whether they can penetrate amyloid plaques. Deeper insights into the properties of the ECS are crucial, as it plays a key role in normal brain function[6] and disease progression. [7–9]  \n1.
