Abstract excerpt
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα) regulates neuronal excitability. We investigated whether alterations in the level of TNFα occur at a time point that precedes the reported seizure-associated hyperexcitability of hippocampal networks in pre-plaque models of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Western blot and ELISA experiments indicated a significant increase in hippocampal TNFα expression in 1-month-old TgCRND8 mice that...
