    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neurobiology of aging 2008-03-11 Biomarkers

    Synaptic changes occur early in the course of Alzheimer's disease and are key to understanding the initial events in associated neurodegenerative processes.

  2. Massive CA1/2 neuronal loss with intraneuronal and N-terminal truncated Abeta42 accumulation in a novel Alzheimer transgenic model

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. The American journal of pathology 2004-10-01 Risk genes beyond APOE

    Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by a substantial degeneration of pyramidal neurons and the appearance of neuritic plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.

  3. Chronic reduction of cerebral blood flow in the adult rat: late-emerging CA1 cell loss and memory dysfunction

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Brain research 1996-02-01 Biomarkers

    Ten-month-old rats were subjected to permanent bilateral occlusion of both common carotid arteries (2-VO) to chronically but moderately reduce brain blood flow. 2-VO impaired Morris water maze acquisition as soon as 7 days post-surgery. 2-VO also caused a later-appearing impairment on the radial arm maze which did not reach significance until 63 days post-surgery.
