Abstract

The different alleles of the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE-gene, ApoE-protein) have been reported to influence recovery after traumatic brain injury (TBI) in both human patients and animal models, with the e4 allele typically conferring poorer prognosis for recovery. How the E4 allele, and consequently the ApoE4 isoform, affects recovery is unknown, but proposed mechanisms include neurogenesis, inflammatory response and amyloid processing or metabolism. Using the controlled cortical impact (CCI) model of brain injury and microarray technology we have characterized the genomic response to injury in the brains of APOE2, APOE3 and APOE4 transgenic mice and identified quantitatively and qualitatively significantly different profiles of gene expression in both the hippocampus and the cortex of the APOE3 mice compared to APOE4. The observed gene regulation predicts functional consequences including effects on inflammatory processes, cell growth and proliferation, and cellular signaling, and may suggest that the poor recovery post-TBI in APOE4 animals and human patients is less likely to result from a specific activation of neurodegenerative mechanisms than a loss of reparative capability.

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

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, 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?

  • Modifying effects of the different apoe protein isoforms on these pathways are biologically plausible and have been evaluated in experimental model systems.

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.
