Abstract excerpt
Reports suggest that Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients show a high life-time prevalence of seizure-like disorders. The transgenic CRND8 (TgCRDN8) is a mouse model of AD-like amyloid pathogenesis that expresses a double-mutant form of human amyloid precursor protein 695 (K670N/M671L and V717F). We have previously reported that post-plaque TgCRND8 mice exhibited a lower threshold to seizure with a more severe...
