Neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease

Michael T. Heneka, +41 more
- 01 Apr 2015 - 
TL;DR: Genome-wide analysis suggests that several genes that increase the risk for sporadic Alzheimer's disease encode factors that regulate glial clearance of misfolded proteins and the inflammatory reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

RAG-1-deficient mice have no mature B and T lymphocytes

TL;DR: The introduction of a mutation in RAG-1 into the germline of mice via gene targeting in embryonic stem cells is described and it is shown that this mutation either activates or catalyzes the V(D)J recombination reaction of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mice deficient for Rb are nonviable and show defects in neurogenesis and haematopoiesis.

TL;DR: Transfer of the human retinoblastoma (RB) mini-transgene into the mutant mice corrects the developmental defects and shows that Rb is essential for normal mouse development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deficient cerebellar long-term depression and impaired motor learning in mGluR1 mutant mice.

TL;DR: It is concluded that mGLUR1 is required for the induction of LTD and that the ataxic behavior and impaired eyeblink conditioning of the mGluR1 mutant mice are primarily due to deficient LTD.
