Biochemical and immunohistochemical analysis of an Alzheimer's disease mouse model reveals the presence of multiple cerebral Aβ assembly forms throughout life

The amyloid β-protein (Aβ) is believed to play a causal role in Alzheimer's disease, however, the mechanism by which Aβ mediates its effect and the assembly form(s) of Aβ responsible remain unclear. Several APP transgenic mice have been shown to accumulate Aβ and to develop cognitive deficits....
