Excerpt

Triple-transgenic mice (3xTgAD) overexpressing Swedish-mutated b-amyloid-precursor-protein (APPswe), P310L-Tau (TauP301L) and physiological levels of M146V-presenilin-1 (PS1M146V) display extracellular amyloid-beta peptides (Abeta) deposits and Tau tangles at late ages. These mice also show an early, age-dependent and hippocampus specific accumulation of intra-neuronal APP-related materiel, which was firstly reported to correspond to Abeta. However, more recent work has disputed the presence of intra-neuronal Abeta and questioned its role in synaptic pathology and behavior. …
