ABSTRACT: Three mouse models of human central nervous system pathologies were selected for analyzing gene expression changes compared to wild type normal brain. The selected models are: TgAPP23 for Alzheimerï¾s disease (see Sturchler-Pierrat, C., Abramowski, D., Duke, M., Wiederhold, K.H., Mistl, C., Rothacher, S., Ledermann, B., B?rki, K., Frey, P., Paganetti, P.A., Waridel, C., Calhoun, M.E., Jucker, M., Probst, A., Staufenbiel, M. and Sommer, B.
