3xTg mice, which express an APP/PS1 mutation combined with a tau (P301L) mutation and that develop cognitive deficits at 6 months of age, were subjected to ELF-MF (50Hz, 500μT) exposure or sham exposure daily for 3 months.
Hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, Dutch type (HCHWA-D), is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by the Dutch mutation (E693Q) in the beta-amyloid precursor protein.
Hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis-Dutch type (HCHWA-D) is an early onset hereditary form of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) caused by a point mutation resulting in an amino acid change (NP_000475.1:p.Glu693Gln) in the amyloid precursor protein (APP).
Familial Alzheimer's disease. A pedigree with a mis-sense mutation in the amyloid precursor protein gene (amyloid precursor protein 717 valine-->glycine).
A673T, a rare variant in the amyloid-β precursor protein gene, shows a protective potential against Alzheimer's disease (AD) and age-related cognitive decline in an Icelandic population.
A coding gene variant A673T (rs63750847) in the APP gene has recently been recognized as a protective variant of late-onset Alzheimer's Disease in a large Icelandic population and has been observed recurrently in populations from Nordic countries.
A functional polymorphism in exon 2 of the cathepsin D gene (C-->T, Ala224Val) has recently been reported to increase the risk for AD in some of the Caucasian populations, with a significant overrepresentation of the T allele, but these reports have not been universally duplicated.
A guanine-to-adenine transition in exon 17 of the APP gene resulting in a valine-to-isoleucine substitution at codon 717 was detected in 14 subjects including 6 patients with EOAD.
