Correlated Inflammatory Responses and Neurodegeneration in Peptide-Injected Animal Models of Alzheimer's Disease

Animal models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) which emphasize activation of microglia may have particular utility in correlating proinflammatory activity with neurodegeneration. This paper reviews injection of amyloid-β (Aβ) into rat brain as an alternative AD animal model to the use of transgenic...
