Abstract excerpt
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) has been implicated as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and in the deposition, fibrillogenesis, and clearance of the amyloid beta-peptide (Abeta). To examine the in vivo interactions between apoE and Abeta deposition, we examined 12-month-old transgenic (tg) mice expressing human amyloid precursor protein (APP) with the V717F mutation (APP(V717F) homozygous) on an APOE null...
