摘要
Accumulating evidence points to an important role of intraneuronal P-amyloid (AP) in the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD), with its typical clinical symptoms like memory impairment and changes in personality. We have previously reported on the A beta precursor protein and presenilin-1 knock-out (APP/PS1KI) mouse model with abundant intraneuronal A beta(42) accumulation and a 50% loss of CA1 neurons at 10 months of age. In addition, we observed reduced short- and long-term synaptic plasticity, hippocampal neuron loss, and reduced performance in a working Memory task. These observations support a pivotal role of intraneuronal AP accumulation as a principal pathological trigger in AD. Copyright (c) 2008 S. Karger AG, Basel.
