Characterization of the 3xTg-AD mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease: Part 2. Behavioral and cognitive changes
Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by distinct behavioral and cognitive deficits that differ from those observed in normal aging. Transgenic models of AD are a promising tool in understanding the underlying mechanisms and cause of disease. The triple-transgenic mouse model of AD (3xTg-AD) is the only model to exhibit both Abeta and tau pathology that is characteristic of the human form. The present study characterized the performance of 3xTg-AD mice on several tasks measuring behavioral and cognitive ability. Aged 3xTg-AD females exhibited a higher level of fear and anxiety demonstrated by increased restlessness, startle responses, and freezing behaviors. No differences were observed in muscle strength and visuo-motor coordination. Understanding the behavioral manifestations that occur in this model of AD may aid in the early diagnosis and appropriate treatment of AD symptomology.

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.
