Gene network disruptions and neurogenesis defects in the adult Ts1Cje mouse model of Down syndrome.
<h4>Background</h4>Down syndrome (DS) individuals suffer mental retardation with further cognitive decline and early onset Alzheimer's disease.<h4>Methodology/principal findings</h4>To understand how trisomy 21 causes these neurological abnormalities we investigated chan...
