Von Willebrand factor promoter targets the expression of amyloid β protein precursor to brain vascular endothelial cells of transgenic mice
22 Apr 2003
Abstract excerpt
Dysfunction of brain vascular endothelial cells may be associated with the pathogenesis of several diseases including cerebral amyloid angiopathy, hemorrhagic stroke and Alzheimer disease. New model systems are necessary to examine the contribution of brain endothelial cells in these disorders. The Von Willebrand factor gene promoter fragment that spans sequences -487 to +247 targets the expression of LacZ marker...
