PSEN2 and Huntington disease: In addition, the pig has highly homologous AD-related genes (PSEN1, PSEN2) compared with the human (Madsen et al., 2007), shows better neuropathology in the brain compared with rodent models when used as a model for the neurodegenerative Huntington's disease (Li and Li, 2012), and its brain has close anatomical and physiological similarities to the human brain (Jelsing et al., 2005).
