ApoE-Directed Therapeutics Rapidly Clear β-Amyloid and Reverse Deficits in AD Mouse Models

Open access

Abstract

Reversing Decline?: Apolipoprotein E (apoE) normally helps in the clearance of β-amyloid from the brain, a process that is compromised in Alzheimer's disease. Cramer et al. (p. 1503 , published online 9 February; see the Perspective by Strittmatter ) now show that a drug that increases apoE expression rapidly promoted soluble β-amyloid clearance in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease. The drug also improved cognitive, social, and olfactory performance and rapidly improved neural circuit function. Similar therapeutics may potentially help to ameliorate the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease and its prodromal states.

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.
