Neuron-Specific Apolipoprotein E4 Proteolysis Is Associated with Increased Tau Phosphorylation in Brains of Transgenic Mice

TL;DR: Neuron-specific proteolytic cleavage of apoE4 is associated with increased phosphorylation of tau and may play a key role in the development of AD-related neuronal deficits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of human apolipoprotein E3 or E4 in the brains of Apoe-/- mice: isoform-specific effects on neurodegeneration.

TL;DR: Differences in the effects of apoE isoforms on neuronal integrity may relate to the increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease and to the poor outcome after head trauma and stroke associated with Apoe−/− mice in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isoform-specific effects of human apolipoprotein E on brain function revealed in ApoE knockout mice: Increased susceptibility of females

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that human apoE isoforms have differential effects on brain function in vivo and that the susceptibility to APOE epsilon4-induced deficits is critically influenced by age and gender.
Journal ArticleDOI

Partial Reduction of BACE1 Has Dramatic Effects on Alzheimer Plaque and Synaptic Pathology in APP Transgenic Mice

TL;DR: Quantitative analyses indicate that brain Aβ levels in young APP transgenic mice are not the sole determinant for the changes in plaque pathology mediated by reduced BACE1, and demonstrate that partial reductions of Bace1 enzyme activity and concomitant A β levels lead to dramatic inhibition of Aβ-driven AD-like pathology.
