A Mouse Model of Amyloid β Oligomers: Their Contribution to Synaptic Alteration, Abnormal Tau Phosphorylation, Glial Activation, and Neuronal Loss In Vivo
Open accessAbstract
Although amyloid β (Aβ) oligomers are presumed to cause synaptic and cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease (AD), their contribution to other pathological features of AD remains unclear. To address the latter, we generated APP transgenic mice expressing the E693Δ mutation, which causes AD by enhanced Aβ oligomerization without fibrillization. The mice displayed age-dependent accumulation of intraneuronal Aβ oligomers from 8 months but no extracellular amyloid deposits even at 24 months. Hippocampal synaptic plasticity and memory were impaired at 8 months, at which time the presynaptic marker synaptophysin began to decrease. Furthermore, we detected abnormal tau phosphorylation from 8 months, microglial activation from 12 months, astrocyte activation from 18 months, and neuronal loss at 24 months. These findings suggest that Aβ oligomers cause not only synaptic alteration but also other features of AD pathology and that these mice are a useful model of Aβ oligomer-induced pathology in the absence of amyloid plaques.

“In the E693Delta APP mutation discovered in a Japanese kindred (Nishitsuji et al., 2009), the presence of intracellular oligomers is essentially identical in patients and in the transgenic mouse model (Tomiyama et al., 2010).”

In the citing paper
“This idea is confirmed by studies reporting a transgenic mouse model bearing APP with a recently described AD-associated mutation that exhibits intraneuronal Aβ accumulation in the absence of plaques and still shows signs of AD-related neurodegeneration [113].”

“The other major limitation of these mouse models was that while some showed evidence of localized hyperphosphylated tau that may represent “pretangles”[107, 118, 151, 159], none developed neurofibrillary tangles.”

In the citing paper
“The APP E693Δ-Tg model expresses the Osaka (APPE693Δ) mutation, which results in a unique phenotype of significantly increased expression of Aβ oligomers, synaptic impairment and cognitive impairments from 8 months of age, but no plaque or tau pathology formation [159].”

“The finding that A oligomers were largely recovered in insoluble fractions suggests the possibility that intraneuronal A in the APPE693 -Tg mice may form fibrils, as reported in other APP-Tg mice (Casas et al., 2004; Oakley et al., 2006).”

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.
