Braak staging in mouse models of Alzheimer's disease

Ivica Granic et al. Am J Pathol. 2010 Oct.

Abstract

In the present paper by David E. Hurtado and colleagues report on a new mouse model for AD bearing Aβ and MAPT pathology by crossing PS19 and PDAPP Tg mice. Here, we tried to highlight the importance and necessity of the critical and systematic analysis of models such as the Braak like staging in AD mouse models.
