Extensive loss of hippocampal neurons serves a pathological basis for irreversible cognitive impairment in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, this characteristic cannot be replicated by transgenic mouse models, and its underlying mechanisms are unclear. Here, we present evidence that different expression patterns of amyloid-β protein precursor (AβPP) secretases in human and mouse hippocampal neurons are a decisive cause of species difference in the susceptibility to Aβ pathogenesis.

In the title compound, C(15)H(14)Cl(2)F(3)NO, synthesized by the reaction of 3-[(E)-2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoro-prop-1-en-yl]-2,2-dimethyl-cyclo-propane-carb-oxy-lic acid and 2-chloro-aniline, the aromatic ring makes a dihedral angle of 76.7 (3)° with the plane of the cyclo-propane ring. In the crystal, inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into chains running along the b axis.

The continuing outbreaks of avian influenza A H5N1 virus infection in Asia and Africa have caused worldwide concern because of the high mortality rates in poultry, suggesting its potential to become a pandemic influenza virus in humans. The transmission route of the virus among either the same species or different species is not yet clear. Broilers and BABL/c mice were inoculated with the H5N1 strain of influenza A virus isolated from birds.

Aim: To express capsid tail protein P11 of T7 bacteriophage and produce mouse monoclonal antibody(mAb) against the protein.

Methods: P11 protein was cloned and recombinant P11 protein was expressed as a fusion protein with an N-terminal 6-His tag. The purified protein was used to immunize BALB/c mouse.
