Description
Mice homozygous for all three mutant alleles (3xTg-AD; homozygous for the Psen1 mutation and homozygous for the co-injected APPSwe and tauP301L transgenes (Tg(APPSwe,tauP301L)1Lfa)) are viable, fertile and display no initial gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Translation of the overexpressed transgenes appears to be restricted to the central nervous system, notably in Alzheimer's disease-relevant areas including the hippocampus and cerebral cortex. A progressive increase in amyloid beta peptide deposition is observed, with intracellular immunoreactivity being detected in some brain regions as early as 3-4 months. Synaptic transmission and long-term potentiation are demonstrably impaired in mice 6 months of age. Between 12-15 months aggregates of conformationally altered and hyperphosphorylated tau are detected in the hippocampus. This mutant mouse exhibits plaque and tangle pathology associated with synaptic dysfunction, traits similar to those observed in Alzheimer's disease patients.

Development
Single-cell embryos from mice bearing the presenilin PS1M146V knockin mutation on a mixed C7BL/6;129X1/SvJ;129S1/Sv genetic background (B6;129-Psen1tm1Mpm) were co-injected with two independent mutant human transgenes; amyloid beta precursor protein (APPSwe) and microtubule-associated protein tau (tauP30IL). Both transgenes integrated at the same locus and are under the control of the mouse Thy1.2 regulatory element. Founder mice (line B1) were mated to B6;129-Psen1tm1Mpm mice. Offspring from this cross were bred together, resulting in mice homozygous for all three alleles (3xTg-AD; homozygous for the Psen1 mutation and homozygous for the co-injected APPSwe and tauP301L transgenes (Tg(APPSwe,tauP301L)1Lfa)). Both male and female 3xTg-AD mice on the mixed C7BL/6;129X1/SvJ;129S1/Sv genetic background were sent to The Jackson Laboratory and bred together to establish this colony.

Mutation Made By George Martin,   University of Washington
Strain of Origin(129X1/SvJ x 129S1/Sv)F1-Kitl<+>
ES Cell Line NameR1
ES Cell Line Strain(129X1/SvJ x 129S1/Sv)F1-Kitl<+>

Chromosome 12
Gene Common Name(s) AD3; Ad3h; FAD; PS-1; PS1; S182; alzheimer disease 3 homolog; presenilin-1;
Molecular Note Point mutations were introduced into the coding region of exon 5 that altered the codons corresponding to amino acids 145 and 146 from isoleucine and methionine to valine and valine, respectively. A lox-P flanked neomycin cassette was also introduced into exon 4. F2 mice exhibited the expected polymorphism of the targeted allele when genomic DNA was amplified with exon 5 specific primers and the products were digested with the appropriate restriction enzyme. Northern blot analysis of total brain RNA using a Psen1 specific antibody showed that the targeted allele was expressed at normal physiological levels in homozygous mutant mice.

Expressed Gene PSEN1, presenilin 1, human

Promoter Thy1, thymus cell antigen 1, theta, mouse, laboratory
Molecular Note To develop a model of Alzheimer's Disease, mice harboring mutant human APP (Swedish double mutation; K670N, M671L) and MAPT (P301L) as well as Psentm1Mpm were generated by microinjection of the APP and MAPT transgenic constructs into single cell embryos harvested from mice homozygous for Psen1tm1Mpm. Southern blot analysis indicated that both transgenic constructs integrated into the same site. Western blot analysis showed APP and MAPT levels to be ~4 fold higher in hemizygous mice and ~6 (APP) to ~7 (Mapt) fold higher homozygous mice, relative to non transgenic mice. Amyloid-Beta peptide (both 40 and 42) was detected in transgenic mice, with greater levels in homozygous mice than in hemizygous mice. Expression was confined to the CNS. Highest steady state levels of proteins were detected in Alzheimer's Disease related regions including the hippocampus and cerebral cortex. Transgenic protein was not detected in the cerebellum.

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
