Abstract excerpt
The Tg2576 mouse, which carries the Swedish mutant form of human β-amyloid precursor protein (hAPP(swe)), develops Alzheimer's Disease (AD)-like phenotype (synaptic pathology, cognitive impairment and β amyloid -Aβ- plaques.) in the absence of significant neuronal loss. We have analyzed the hippocampal proteome of Tg2576, focusing on changes at 7 months of age, when Aβ levels begin to increase but cognitive...
