Abstract excerpt
A beta deposition in the APPV717F transgenic model of Alzheimer's pathology involves apolipoprotein E (apoE). We measured soluble and insoluble apoE in brain region extracts at an early and late stage of plaque development. The apoE levels in the insoluble fraction were greatly elevated in the hippocampus and cortex of aged transgenic animals but were unchanged in wild type or young APPV717F animals. Soluble apoE...
