  1. Tau post-translational modifications in wild-type and human amyloid precursor protein transgenic mice

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. Nature neuroscience 2015-07-20 Risk genes beyond APOE

    The microtubule-associated protein tau has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative disorders.

  2. Complement C3 deficiency leads to accelerated amyloid beta plaque deposition and neurodegeneration and modulation of the microglia/macrophage phenotype in amyloid precursor protein transgenic mice

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience 2008-06-01 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Complement factor C3 is the central component of the complement system and a key inflammatory protein activated in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  3. Overexpression of monocyte chemotactic protein-1/CCL2 in beta-amyloid precursor protein transgenic mice show accelerated diffuse beta-amyloid deposition

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The American journal of pathology 2005-05-01 Biomarkers

    Microglia accumulation at the site of amyloid plaques is a strong indication that microglia play a major role in Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis.
