mortality/aging
• survival is reduced similarly to that seen in single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes until 150 days and thereafter shows a trend towards increased mortality
|
behavior/neurological
• learning in the Morris water maze is impaired compared to single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes at 12 months of age
|
• memory formation in the Morris water maze is impaired compared to single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes at 12 months of age
|
homeostasis/metabolism
• amyloid beta formation and plaque load in aged mice is similar to single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes
|
nervous system
• amyloid beta formation and plaque load in aged mice is similar to single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes
|
• spectral power at gamma (30-100 Hz) frequency is increased more than in single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes, indicating neuronal network hypersynchronicity
• theta/gamma cross frequency coupling, an EEG measure linked to memory, is disrupted more than in single Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm hemizygotes
