Interaction Information:

Comment At 6 months of age, apoE4 female showed impairments in hippocampus-dependent spatial learning and memory in the water maze. These impairments were observed in mice that express apoE4 in neurons or astrocytes and are therefore independent of the cellular source of apoE. They require apoE4 and are not seen in Apoe-/- female mice, consistent with a pathogenic gain of function of apoE4.

Comment Compared to age-matched wild-type and Apoe-/- mice, expression of apoE4, but not apoE3, reduces cytosolic AR binding to androgens in the neocortex of female and male mice

Comment In cortical extracts, more AR was pulled down from extracts of NSE-apoE4 than NSE-apoE3 mice. GST-apoE proteins pull down ARs from cortical extracts of Apoe‚ąí/‚ąí mice and that GST-apoE4 might pull down more ARs than GST-apoE3 or GST-apoE2.

Comment In the vertical limb of the diagonal band of Broca, a major cholinergic nucleus in the basal forebrain affected in AD, the presence of AD pathology or an őĶ4 allele negatively correlates with the percentage of AR-positive neurons in women, but not in men.
