Metal ion content in the hippocampus in PSAPP (colored bars) and CNT mice (white bars). No changes in metal ion content were observed in age-matched control (CNT) mice at any time point. (A) Fe content in PSAPP mice increased by 31% from 13 to 24 weeks and decreased by 15% from 24 to 56 weeks. At 56 weeks, Fe content was 18% lower than in CNT mice at the same time point (p < 0.01). (B) Zn and (C) Cu content remained constant in PSAPP mice. [Error bars = SD. * indicates significantly different from 13 week-old PSAPP mice (p < 0.01); ‡ indicates significantly different from 24 week-old PSAPP mice (p < 0.01); # indicates significantly different from CNT mice at the same time point (p < 0.01).]
