Cortical Iron Regulation and Inflammatory Response in Alzheimer’s Disease and APPSWE/PS1ΔE9 Mice: A Histological Perspective

Disruption of iron homeostasis and increased glial response are known to occur in brains afflicted by Alzheimer’s disease (AD). While the APP/PS1 transgenic mouse model recapitulates the hallmark amyloid-beta plaque pathology of AD, it does so in a different neuronal mileu than humans. Understandi...
