Abstract excerpt
Transgenic mice were created using human apolipoprotein E2, E3, and E4 gene fragments driven by the human glial acidic fibrillary protein (GFAP) promoter. Founders were obtained and progeny were assayed for transgene expression in the brain by RNase protection, immunohistochemistry, and Western blotting, demonstrating robust apolipoprotein E (apoE) brain expression, with human apoE representing up to...
