Immunostaining of neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's senile dementia with a neurofilament antiserum.
Using anti-chicken brain neurofilament antisera, Alzheimer's neurofibrillary tangles from two patients with senile dementia were stained by immunofluorescence and by the peroxidase-antiperoxidase procedure in cryostat sections of hippocampus and frontal cortex. In sections of cerebellum obtained from the same patients, the distribution of immunostaining was the same as that observed in experime...
متن کاملSenile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in cortical neurons in AD
Neurodegenerative disorders are characterized clinically by insidious onset and slowly progressive course, and are frequently hereditary. Pathologically, these diseases share a common feature: the selective loss of a particular subset of neurons for unknown reasons [e.g. cerebral cortical neurons in ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE (AD) (see Glossary), substantia nigra neurons in PARKINSON’S DISEASE (PD), s...
متن کاملPhosphorylated neurofilament antigens in neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease.
Neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) are a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), and their presence correlates with the presence of dementia. A major constituent of NFT is the insoluble paired helical filament which shares some antigenic relationships with normal cytoskeletal elements, particularly neurofilaments. If neurofilament proteins (200, 145-160, and 68 kilodaltons [kd]) participate in the for...
متن کاملChemical pathology of neurofibrils. Neurofibrillary tangles of Alzheimer's presenile-senile dementia.
A subcellular fraction enriched in twisted tubules was obtained by differential centrifugation of a homogenate of neurons isolated from areas of the brain with many neurofibrillary tangles from patients with Alzheimer's presenile-senile dementia. A unique protein (molecular weight 50,000 daltons) which does not co-migrate with either of the two tubulin monomers of the major neurofilament protei...
متن کاملDiffuse neurofibrillary tangles with calcification: a new presenile dementia.
The term "diffuse neurofibrillary tangles with calcification" (DNTC) is proposed for a new form of presenile dementia. It is characterised by slowly progressive cortical dementia in the presenium, localised temporal or temporofrontal lobar atrophy, numerous neurofibrillary tangles widespread in the cerebral cortex, and pronounced calcareous deposits; 16 cases of DNTC, have been reported.
