Pathological aging of the brain
The distinction between normal vs. pathologic brain aging is not as clear cut as one might think. The prevalence of various pathologic findings that are causally linked to dementia increases with age, for example neurofibrillary tangles, amyloid plaques, and cerebro vascular disease. What makes the notion of distinguishing pathological from normal brain aging difficult is the fact that the same...
متن کاملBrain cholesterol in normal and pathological aging.
Correct lipid homeostasis at the plasma membrane is essential for cell survival and performance. These are critically challenged in the aging brain. Changes in the levels of cholesterol, a major membrane component especially enriched in neurons, accompany the brain aging process. They also occur in neurodegenerative diseases. Understanding the causes and consequences of these changes is a cruci...
متن کاملPhysiological and pathological clinical conditions and light scattering in brain
MRI of preterm infants at term commonly reveals subtle brain lesions such as diffuse white matter injury, which are linked with later cognitive impairments. The timing and mechanism of such injury remains unclear. The reduced scattering coefficient of near-infrared light (μs') has been shown to correlate linearly with gestational age in neonates. To identify clinical variables associated with b...
متن کاملBrain size, sex, and the aging brain.
This study was conducted to examine the statistical influence of brain size on cortical, subcortical, and cerebellar compartmental volumes. This brain size influence was especially studied to delineate interactions with Sex and Age. Here, we studied 856 healthy subjects of which 533 are classified as young and 323 as old. Using an automated segmentation procedure cortical (gray and white matter...
متن کاملSuccessful physiological aging and episodic memory: a brain stimulation study.
Functional neuroimaging studies have shown that younger adults tend to asymmetrically recruit specific regions of an hemisphere in an episodic memory task (Hemispheric Encoding Retrieval Asymmetry-HERA model). In older adults, this hemispheric asymmetry is generally reduced as suggested by the Hemispheric Asymmetry Reduction for OLDer Adults-HAROLD-model. Recent works suggest that while low-per...
