“…APP SWE /PS1 DE9 mice have decreased, increased or unchanged CB 1 R availability depending on the age and sex of the animals, as well as the used methods (Kalifa et al, 2011;Karkkainen et al, 2012;Mulder et al, 2011). A more recent study in the same animal model reported increased cannabinoid receptor coupling in the FC and STR, but not in the HIPPO, when TG mice were compared with WT mice (Maroof et al, 2014), whereas an agedependent reduction in CB 1 R levels were reported in the neocortex of APP SWE /PS1 DE9 mice from 6 months of age (Aso et al, 2012). In a 3 Â Tg-AD mouse model, significantly higher CB 1 R mRNA expression was observed in the prefrontal cortex and dorsal HIPPO of 6-and 12-month-old male TG mice and decreased CB 1 R levels in the dorsal HIPPO of 12-month-old TG mice (Bedse et al, 2014).…”
