involves: C3H/HeJ * C57BL/6 * CBA
- nervous system phenotype
- abnormal astrocyte morphology
- abnormal nervous system physiology
- amyloid beta deposits
- doxycycline-mediated suppression of transgenic APPSwInd synthesis leads to parallel reductions of amyloid beta peptide levels (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- early onset amyloid formation is observed, with plaques observed as early as 8 weeks of age in mice receiving no doxycycline (DOX) treatment (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- plaques are restricted to the forebrain, including the cortex, hippocampus, olfactory bulb, and striatum; by 6 months, amyloid burden covers large cortical and hippocampal areas (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- first observed plaques are fibrillar-core deposits; in 6 month old animals, diffuse plaques are apparent and these are abundant at 9 months, while in 9-12 month-old mice, plaques are visible in the thalamus (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- no lesions are observed in the cerebellum or brain stem (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- animals receiving no treatment display moderate amyloid pathology at 6 months, which progresses to a severe amyloid burden by 9 months (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- mice raised for 6 months with no (DOX) treatment, followed by 3 or 6 months of DOX treatment show similar pathology to untreated 6-month old animals, despite relatively long lesion clearance times (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- neurofibrillary tangles
- first visible plaques are fibrillary-cored deposits (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- behavior/neurological phenotype
- abnormal circadian rhythm
- all animals raised with doxycycline have altered circadian rhythms with less distinction between day- and nighttime activity levels (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- abnormal locomotor activation
- hyperactive behavior is partially reversed in some mice by 1 month of transgene suppression starting at 4-5 months of age (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- hyperactivity
- untreated mice show hyperactivity, often running in circles around the perimeter of cages (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- similar patterns of activity are observed in Morris water maze, with repetitive swim patterns seen in radial water maze swim test (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- hyperactive phenotype penetrance is ~100% (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- untreated mice show 10-fold more ambulatory activity during the dark phase; even in light phase, activity is several-fold increased compared to wild-type controls; this activity is completely abolished in mice raised on doxycycline (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- immune system phenotype
- CNS inflammation
- other phenotype
- amyloid beta deposits
- doxycycline-mediated suppression of transgenic APPSwInd synthesis leads to parallel reductions of amyloid beta peptide levels (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- early onset amyloid formation is observed, with plaques observed as early as 8 weeks of age in mice receiving no doxycycline (DOX) treatment (MGI Ref ID J:109829)
- plaques are restricted to the forebrain, including the cortex, hippocampus, olfactory bulb, and striatum; by 6 months, amyloid burden covers large cortical and hippocampal areas (MGI Ref ID J:109829)

- mice raised for 6 months with no (DOX) treatment, followed by 3 or 6 months of DOX treatment show similar pathology to untreated 6-month old animals, despite relatively long lesion clearance times (MGI Ref ID J:109829)

|---|---|---|---|
| Allele Name | transgene insertion 107, David R Borchelt | ||
| Allele Type | Transgenic (random, expressed) | ||
| Common Name(s) | tet-APPswe/ind line 107; | ||
| Mutation Made By | David Borchelt, McKnight Brain Inst, Univ of Florida | ||
| Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6J x C3H/HeJ)F1 | ||
| Expressed Gene | APP695, amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein (chimeric), mouse/human chimera | ||
| Promoter | tetO, tet operator, | ||
| Molecular Note | The mouse amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein (APP) sequence was modified to contain a humanized amyloid-beta (Abeta) domain. This mouse/human chimeric APP (mo/huAPP695 or APP695) was mutated to incorporate the Swedish (KM570/571NL) and Indiana (V617F) APP mutations associated with Alzheimer's disease. This APP695swe/ind sequence was placed downstream of the tetracycline-responsive (TRE or tetO) promoter and mouse prion protein exons 1-2. Line 107 was established and most thoroughly studied.
