Cholinergic neuropathology in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease
Transgenic mice over-expressing mutant human amyloid precursor protein (PDAPP mouse) develop several Alzheimer’s disease (AD)-like lesions including an age-related accumulation of amyloid-?-containing neuritic plaques. Although aged, heterozygous PDAPP mice also exhibit synaptic and glial cell changes, that is characteristic of AD pathology, no evidence of neurodegeneration has been observed. T...

متن کاملP-111: An Attempt to Facilitate the Production of Transgenic Mouse As A Model for Gene Therapy of Gaucher Disease
Background: Gaucher disease is an autosomal recessive inherited lysosomal storage disorder that affects many of the body's organs and tissues by defective function of the catabolic enzyme β-glucocerebrosidase. Gene therapy is one of the efficient ways for treatment of this disease. Due to the lack of appropriate animal models, in the field of gene therapy little progress has been done.Mate...
متن کاملA study on striatal local electrical potential changes in an animal model of Parkinson's disease
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that does not develop spontaneously in some animal species. PD can be induced experimentally in some laboratory animals including mouse, rat and horse. Globus pallidus (GP) and substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) are damaged in patients with PD. The hallmark of PD is a progressive impaired control of movement, an alteration of autonomic ...
متن کاملAlterations in Striatal Survival Signaling Pathways in the YAC128 Transgenic Mouse Model of Huntington’s Disease
Huntington’s disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neuropathology characterized by a degenerative process in the basal ganglia (namely the striatum) and associated with progressive cognitive and motor dysfunctions. This neurological condition is caused by a mutation in the gene that encodes the protein huntingtin (HTT). The YAC128 is a transgenic mouse model that expresses the full-length human...
