A quantitative Golgi study of basal dendrites of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells in senile dementia of Alzheimer type.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Basal dendrites of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells in senile dementia of Alzheimer type (SDAT) were studied quantitatively by the Golgi impregnation method. The present data suggested that basal dendrites of the pyramidal cells were decreased in number in SDAT, and that the dendritic decrease was associated with a decrease in size of their cell bodies.

Morphological Changes in Hippocampal Ca1 Area in Diabetic Rats: A Golgi-impregnation Study
Background and Objective: Although diabetes mellitus is known to be one of the risk factors for dementia but neuropathic changes in the brain of diabetic patients have not been completely revealed. Therefore, this research study was done to evaluate structural changes in pyramidal neurons of hippocampal ...
متن کاملEffects of Ginkgo biloba extract on the structure of Cornu Ammonis in aged rat: A morphometric study
Objective(s):Growing evidence indicates that extract of Ginkgo biloba (EGb) attenuates hippocampal-dependent memory deficit in aged individuals; however, very little is known about the effect of EGb on the structure of hippocampus. Therefore we examined the EGb-induced morphological changes of the Cornu Ammonis (CA) region in aged rats. Materials and Methods: Sixteen aged male Wistar rats, 24 ...
متن کاملDendritic spine density of adult hippocampal pyramidal cells is sensitive to thyroid hormone.
In order to determine whether pyramidal cells of the adult hippocampus are morphologically sensitive to thyroid hormone, we performed single-section Golgi impregnation analyses on brains from hyperthyroid and control rats. Quantitative analyses of Golgi-impregnated pyramidal cells from the CA1 region showed a significant decrease in the density of apical dendritic spines with hyperthyroidism. I...

Background and Aims: This study examined sub-chronic effects of Methamphetamine (METH) on the stereological parameters in the Cornu Ammonis (CA) of the hippocampus in adult mice. Materials and Methods: Fifteen adult male mice, eight weeks old, were randomly divided into three groups: receive saline (controls), or low-dose (LD) 2.5 mg/kg METH, or high-dose (HD) 25 mg/kg METH, via daily intrap...
متن کاملEffect of Coenzyme Q10 (ubiquinone) on hippocampal CA1 pyramidal cells following transient global ischemia/reperfusion in male wistar rat
Ischemia/Reperfusion (I/R)-induced cerebral injury has been reported as a leading cause of deathand long-term disabilities. Hippocampus is an area which is more sensitive to be affected by I/Rand hypoxic conditions. Coenzyme Q10 is a strong antioxidant which plays a role in membranestabilization. This study aims to investigate the possible role of CoQ10 in ameliorating thehistomorphological cha...
