Abstract excerpt
APPDutch transgenic (tg) mice develop cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) that consists mainly of AbetaDutch40, with virtually no parenchymal amyloid plaques. To modulate cerebral amyloidosis, we crossbred APPDutch mice with either BACE1 tg mice to increase total AbetaDutch, or with G384A-mutated PS1 tg mice to elevate the ratio of AbetaDutch42 to AbetaDutch40. We analyzed all mice at 22 months of age. Compared to...
