Abstract:
The aim of the present study was to explore the correlation between ptk2b/PTK2B (protein tyrosine kinase 2 beta, a ptk2b-encoded protein) and the level of low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein-1 (LRP-1), as well as to uncover the relationship between the changes in beta amyloid protein (Aβ) levels in blood and brain and the expression of ptk2b in Aβ-induced cognitive dysfunction mice. A total of 64 3-month-old C57BL/6J mice were divided randomly into the experimental group and control group. All mice underwent the intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) intubation. Mice in the experimental group received the i.c.v. infusion of oligomeric Aβ
