007051 B6.Cg-Tg(tetO-APPSwInd)102Dbo/J
Repository- Live
Hemizygotes for this tetO-APPswe/ind transgene are viable and fertile. These transgenic mice express a chimeric mouse/human amyloid precursor protein (APP695) bearing the Swedish (KM570/571NL) and Indiana (V617F) mutations associated with Alzheimer's disease (APP695swe/ind) under the control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; tetO). When hemizygotes are bred with another transgenic mouse expressing either reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (rtTA) or tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA) under the control of a tissue-specific promoter, APP695swe/ind expression in the appropriate tissues of the bitransgenic offspring can be regulated with the tetracycline analog doxycycline (dox). These tetO-APPswe/ind transgenic mice may be useful in studies of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative tauopathies.

For example, when bred to a strain expressing tTA in brain tissues (see Stock No. For more information please see the full descriiption on the strain data sheet

007052 B6.Cg-Tg(tetO-APPSwInd)107Dbo/J
Repository- Live
Hemizygotes for this tetO-APPswe/ind transgene are viable and fertile. These transgenic mice express a chimeric mouse/human amyloid precursor protein (APP695) bearing the Swedish (KM570/571NL) and Indiana (V617F) mutations associated with Alzheimer's disease (APP695swe/ind) under the control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; tetO). When hemizygotes are bred with another transgenic mouse expressing either reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (rtTA) or tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA) under the regulation of a tissue-specific promoter, APP695swe/ind expression in the target tissue of the bitransgenic offspring can be regulated with the tetracycline analog doxycycline (dox) in the resulting double mutant offspring. These tetO-APPswe/ind transgenic mice may be useful in studies of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative tauopathies.

For example, when bred to a strain expressing tTA in brain tissues (see Stock No. .....

Hemizygotes for this tetO-APPswe/ind transgene are viable and fertile. These transgenic mice express a chimeric mouse/human amyloid precursor protein (APP695) bearing the Swedish (KM570/571NL) and Indiana (V617F) mutations associated with Alzheimer's disease (APP695swe/ind) under the control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; tetO).

006004 B6C3-Tg(tetO-APPSwInd)885Dbo/J
Repository- Live
Hemizygous mice are viable and fertile. These transgenic mice express a chimeric mouse/human amyloid precursor protein (APP) bearing the Swedish (KM570/571NL) and Indiana (V617F) mutations associated with Alzheimer's disease (APPswe/ind) under the control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; tetO). When hemizygotes are bred with another transgenic mouse expressing reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (rtTA) or tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA) under the regulation of tissue-specific promoters , APPswe/ind transgene expression can be regulated in the appropriate tissue of the bitransgenic offspring with the tetracycline analog, doxycycline.

When bred to a strain expressing rtTA or tTA in brain tissues (see Stock No. 003010, for example), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of Alzheimer's Disease.

005706 C57BL/6-Tg(tetO-CDK5R1/GFP)337Lht/J
Repository-Cryopreserved
Hemizygous transgenic mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any behavioral abnormalities. Mice homozygous for this transgene may not be viable. When these transgenic mice are bred with mice expressing the tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA) under the regulation of a tissue-specific promoter, expression of the CDK5R1/GFP fusion protein in the appropriate tissue of the bitransgenic offspring can be regulated by doxycycline administration. These mice may be useful in studies of Alzheimer's disease and other neurodegenerative tauopathies, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Niemann Pick Type C (NPC) disease, and Parkinson's disease.

Note: this transgenic strain was designed to breed with Tg(Camk2a-tTA) transgenic mice, (Stock No. 003010), a transgenic strain that expresses tTA in forebrain neurons. The resulting bitransgenic offspring exhibit the hallmark phenotype of Alzheimer's disease; .....
