APP_Swe/Lon knock-in mice (PLB2_APP) display heightened hippocampal astrogliosis at 6 months compared to PLB_WT controls, correlating with the onset of cognitive phenotypes. Green-astrocytes (GFAP), red-neuronal bodies (αNeuN), blue-nuclei (DAPI). From Plucińska et al., JAD65(1).

Recruited bone marrow-derived microglia are in close proximity to amyloid depositions. From Steffen et al., JAD65(2).

Confocal microscope images show that HO-1 (red) induces Tau-oligomer (green) formation and co-localizes with Tau-oligomer in the hippocampal CA3 region of HO-1 transgenic mice. From Si et al., JAD65(2).

JAD Reports is a new international, multidisciplinary journal dedicated to providing an open forum for original research that will expedite our fundamental understanding of Alzheimer's disease.

SOX1 protein expression (green) in immature (DCX+) granule cells (red) of the hippocampus in non-transgenic mice. Yellow arrowheads marks cells immunopositive for both proteins. From Zaletel et al., JAD65(3).

Insulin delivery to the brain using islet transplantation into cranial subarachnoid cavity. A) HRP insulin staining. B) IF insulin (red), alpha-SMA (green) and nuclei (blue) staining. From Bloch et al., JAD65(4).

In SH-SY5Y cells, Tau-induced Ring-shaped Microtubule bundles (RsMtb) (arrows) are resistant to either Taxol (A) or Nocodazole (B) treatments. In panel B, lateral strands of Microtubules (arrowheads) are projecting from RsMtb (arrows). From Rodríguez-Cruz et al., JAD65(4).
