Abstract excerpt
In this study, brain gangliosides of different transgenic mouse models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) were analyzed and compared with age-matched wild-type mice. Gangliosides were analyzed in cerebral cortex, a region with extensive A beta plaques, and cerebellum, a non-vulnerable region with no A beta containing plaques. There was a marked increase in simple gangliosides GM2 and GM3 only within the cortex of all...
