Abstract

Mutations in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene result in elevated production and deposition of the 42 amino acid beta-amyloid (Abeta1-42) peptide and early-onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). To accurately examine the effect of the APP FAD mutations in vivo, we introduced yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) containing the entire genomic copy of human APP harboring FAD mutations into transgenic mice. Our current results demonstrate that mutant APP YAC transgenic mice exhibit many features characteristic of human AD, including regional deposition of Abeta with preferential deposition of Abeta1-42, extensive neuritic abnormalities as evidenced by staining with APP, ubiquitin, neurofilament, and hyperphosphorylated tau antibodies, increased markers of inflammation, and the overlapping deposition of Abeta with apolipoproteins E and J. Our results also suggest that APP YAC transgenic mice possess unique pathological attributes when compared to other transgenic mouse models of AD that may reflect the experimental design of each model.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
