Normal cognitive behavior in two distinct congenic lines of transgenic mice hyperexpressing mutant APPSWE

Amyloid deposition appears to be an early and crucial event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). To generate animal models of AD, mice expressing full-length amyloid precursor protein (APP), with mutations linked to FAD, have been created. These animals exhibit abnormalities characteristic of AD, including...
