nervous system
• fibrillar thioflavin-S positive amyloid plaques are significantly increased in subiculum region of brain compared to Tg(APPV717I)1130Kha single transgenics
• decrease in vascular amyloid deposition is found in double transgenics relative to single mutant animals
• by 15 months, subiculum is almost totally covered with diffuse and senile plaques
• at 15 months and older, surface of cerebral cortex is occupied by thioflavin-S- and amyloid beta-positive deposits is 3-5-fold greater than in age-matched Tg(APPV717I)1130Kha mice
• dystrophic neurites with swollen and distorted neuritic profiles are identified in brains of mice

homeostasis/metabolism
• total levels of intact amyloid beta-40 and-42 peptides are increased by ~3-fold in older mice relative to single transgenic mice
• fibrillar thioflavin-S positive amyloid plaques are significantly increased in subiculum region of brain compared to Tg(APPV717I)1130Kha single transgenics
• decrease in vascular amyloid deposition is found in double transgenics relative to single mutant animals
