This rare insertion has been identified in three Japanese families with disorders in the frontotemporal dementia (FTD) spectrum, although some members have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease (PD) ...
The App SAA mouse joins a list of knock-in models that carry a humanized Aβ sequence within the murine App gene (App knock-in (humanized Aβ), APP NL-F Knock-in, APP NL-G-F Knock-in). As in the latter ...
Background Acute administration of nicotine to AD patients improved accuracy of delayed recall, as well as deficits in attention and information processing (Sahakian et al. 1989; Wesnes and Warburton, ...
These mice have a targeted deletion in the mouse gene β-site APP cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1). Homozygous mice are viable, fertile, normal in size, and do not display any gross physical or behavioral ...

This APP transgenic overexpresses mutant human APP under the control of the Thy-1.2 promoter, driving neuronal expression. The transgene carries two mutations associated with familial Alzheimer’s ...
Whether a person eats a cookie or devours the whole box could come down to the mood of microglia in their hypothalamus. Blocking activation of the region’s NLRP3 inflammasome could keep excessive ...
Could stem cells step in to replace lost neurons in Parkinson’s disease? In three Phase 1 clinical trials, scientists tested lab-grown dopaminergic cells in small cohorts to assess safety and look for ...
For people with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), the heightened risk of ARIA, i.e., inflammation around blood vessels, may outweigh any potential gains of anti-amyloid immunotherapy. But with about ...
Hypertension heightens the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, but exactly how is not understood. In a bioRxiv preprint posted September 19, scientists led by Costantino Iadecola at Weill Cornell Medical ...
This knock-in (KI) mouse model was generated by introducing a D427V point mutation into exon 10 of the mouse Gba1 (glucosidase, beta, acid 1) gene, which corresponds to the human D409V mutation (The ...
