Cerebral atherosclerosis is associated with cystic infarcts and microinfarcts but not Alzheimer pathologic changes.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Some studies have reported associations between intracranial atherosclerosis and Alzheimer disease pathology. We aimed to correlate severity of cerebral atherosclerosis, arteriolosclerosis, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy with neurofibrillary tangles, neuritic plaques, and cerebral infarcts. METHODS This autopsy study (n=163) was drawn from a longitudinal study of subco...
متن کاملCognitive measures predict pathologic Alzheimer disease.
BACKGROUND Neuropsychologic testing is often used to infer neuropathologic processes, but clinicopathologic correlations for individual cognitive measures are based on a small number of published studies. OBJECTIVE To examine the usefulness of the age- and education-adjusted Mayo Cognitive Factor Scales (MCFS) obtained at participants' initial assessments for predicting the presence or absenc...
متن کاملGenes associated with Alzheimer Disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the neurodegenerative disorders, characterized by gradual loss of memory, decline in other cognitive functions and decrease in functional capacity. Increasing age and a positive family history of dementia are the defi nite risk factors of the disease. Molecular analysis of families with early onset of AD (EOAD) has made it possible to identify dominantly actin...
متن کاملNeuregulin-1 and erbB4 immunoreactivity is associated with neuritic plaques in Alzheimer disease brain and in a transgenic model of Alzheimer disease.
Neuregulin-1 (NRG-1) regulates developmental neuronal survival and synaptogenesis, astrocytic differentiation, and microglial activation. Given these NRG-1 actions, we hypothesized that the synaptic loss, gliosis, inflammation, and neuronal death occurring in Alzheimer disease (AD) is associated with altered expression of NRG-1 and its receptors (the erbB2, erbB3, and erbB4 membrane tyrosine ki...
متن کاملAssessing the Changes of Cortical Thickness in Alzheimer Disease With MRI Using Freesurfer Software
Introduction: In this study, we intend to determine the correlation between the thickness of the cerebral cortex and the severity of the cognitive disorder in Alzheimer disease (AD). Methods: A total of 20 (14 women and 6 men) patients diagnosed with AD with a Mean age of 72.95 years, and 10 (7 women and 3 men) cognitively normal (CN) subjects with a Mean age of 70.50 years were included in th...
