behavior/neurological
• mice are significantly impaired in Morris water maze tasks

nervous system
• high level of amyloid beta aggregates are found in brain at 12 months of age

homeostasis/metabolism
• in 12-month old brains, there is a 27% reduction in amyloid beta aggregates compared to transgenic mice that are wild-type for Bace1; there are no significant differences at 20 months
• in 12-month old brains, there is 37% reduction in percentage of brain volume occupied by amyloid beta deposits, but no difference at 20 months
• high level of amyloid beta aggregates are found in brain at 12 months of age

N normal phenotype
nervous system
N
• mice with transgene expression induced by removal of doxycycline from the food 4-6 weeks postnatal exhibit decreased amyloid beta in the hippocampus
• mice exhibit normal synaptic plasticity and long term potentiation (LTP) is fully restored following a 6-week induction
• mice exhibit normal density of synaptophysin puncta in the stratum radiatum of the hippocampus, indicating restoration of synapse density, following a 6-week induction
• brain weight is reduced in 6-week induced mice
• reduction in the number of NeuN-positive cells in hippocampal area CA1 in 6-week induced mice
• reactive astrogliosis is seen in the cortex and hippocampus in 6-week induced mice

behavior/neurological
N
• 6-week induced mice show improved associate learning in contextual fear conditioning and are indistinguishable from controls
