A Comparative Study of Five Mouse Models of Alzheimer′s Disease: Cell Cycle Events Reveal New Insights into Neurons at Risk for Death

Abstract excerpt

Ectopic cell cycle events (CCEs) in postmitotic neurons link the neurodegenerative process in human Alzheimer's disease (AD) with the brain phenotype of transgenic mouse models with known familial AD genes. Most reports on the mouse models use the appearance of brain amyloid pathology as a key outcome measure. In the current paper, we focus on the induction of neurodegeneration using CCEs as markers for impending...
