1 Here, we demonstrate that intranasal administration of phosphoramidon produces significantly elevated cerebral Abeta levels in wild-type mice. phosphoramidon amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein Mus musculus
2 Furthermore, intranasal phosphoramidon administration in double knockout mice lacking NEP and NEP2 also showed increased levels of Abeta(40). phosphoramidon amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein Mus musculus
3 These data show that intranasal delivery of drugs can be used to model AD and suggest that other phosphoramidon-sensitive peptidases are degrading Abeta in NEP/NEP2-deficient mice. phosphoramidon amyloid beta (A4) precursor protein Mus musculus
