Aβ plaques were visualized using the 6E10 antibody to AA1-17 of the hAβ protein.
A) Plaque size at 3, 6, and 9 months of age in the cortex of mThy1-hAβPP751 Tg mice. B) Plaque number at 3, 6, and 9 months of age in the cortex of mThy1-hAβPP751 Tg mice. C) Plaque size at 3, 6, and 9 months of age in the hippocampus of mThy1-hAβPP751 Tg mice. D) Plaque number at 3, 6, and 9 months of age in the hippocampus of mThy1-hAβPP751 Tg mice. Insets in the bars at 9 months indicate gender-related differences in cortical and hippocampal plaque size and number. Data are presented as means ± SEM.* Indicates a significant difference with p<0.05 by one-way ANOVA. ** Indicates a significant difference with p<0.01 by one-way ANOVA. *** Indicates a significant difference with p<0.001 by one-way ANOVA
