APP and allergic disease: Analysis of the APP levels in the present allergy model, performed with an antibody directed against a 22 amino acids long region located at the COOH-terminus of APP, did not reveal any differences between the allergic and control mice, neither in the hippocampus nor in the parietal cortex, of either Balb/c (Fig. 6) or C57B6 (data not shown) animals.
