BACKGROUND: The protective Icelandic mutation in the amyloid precursor protein (APP) gene, APPA673T, identified in Icelandic and other Nordic populations is associated with a significantly lower risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (AD). Conflicting results have been reported for the human APPA673T mutation in various knock-in models of AD, but the effect of the mouse APPA673T form in 5× familial AD (5×FAD)...
