Genetic variants associated with neurodegenerative Alzheimer disease in natural models

The use of transgenic models for the study of neurodegenerative diseases has made valuable contributions to the field. However, some important limitations, including protein overexpression and general systemic compensation for the missing genes, has caused researchers to seek natural models that sho...

description The use of transgenic models for the study of neurodegenerative diseases has made valuable contributions to the field.
