Abnormal subgranular zone (SGZ) neurogenesis is proposed to contribute to Alzheimer's disease (AD)-related decreases in hippocampal function. Our goal was to examine hippocampal neurogenesis in the PDAPP mouse, a model of AD with age-dependent accumulation of amyloid-โค 42 (Aโค 42 )-containing plaques

## Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) differs from other forms of dementia in its relation to amyloid ฮฒ peptide (Aฮฒ). Aฮฒ, a proteolytic product of amyloid precursor proteins (APP), has a toxic effect on neuronal cells, which involves perturbation of their Ca^2+^ homeostasis. This effect implies that
Axonal pathology is a prevalent feature of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and is thought to occur predominantly due to the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aฮฒ). However, it remains unclear whether therapeutics geared toward reducing Aฮฒ improves axonal deficits. We have previously used Manganese Enhanced MRI
## Abstract Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease associated with senile ฮฒโamyloid (Aฮฒ) plaques and cognitive decline. Neurogenesis in the adult hippocampus is implicated in regulating learning and memory, and is increased in human postmortem brain of AD patients. Howe
## Abstract Alterations in hippocampal cell proliferation have been identified in transgenic (tg) mouse models of Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, relatively little is known about the underlying mechanisms. Previously, we have demonstrated that endogenous level of BMP4 in the dentate gyrus (DG) a
