Definitions

  • the present invention falls within the field of biotechnology. Specifically it refers to the development of nonhuman animals useful as models of human diseases related to cognitive deficits, and more specifically as a model of Alzheimer's.
  • Alzheimer's disease is one of the most important diseases in biomedical research. It is one of the neurodegenerative diseases that has the most impact on society. This disease causes a cognitive deterioration of the patient, and can end up developing in such a way that it can lead to the death of the patient. Due to the progressive aging of the population in industrialized countries, the mortality rate due to this disease is rising. The existence of a low number of useful drugs has led to a great development of the number of investigations carried out in order to know the pathogenesis of the disease. In addition, the number of compounds tested has been increased with the intention of finding treatments for the disease. However, at present it is still necessary to investigate in greater depth the pathophysiological mechanisms that the disease entails, and the search for drugs that allow a remission of the disease and an improvement in the quality of life of patients.
