  1. Restraint Stress-Induced Morphological Changes at the Blood-Brain Barrier in Adult Rats

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Frontiers in molecular neuroscience 2016-01-14 Biomarkers

    Stress is well-known to contribute to the development of both neurological and psychiatric diseases.

  2. Continuous infusion of beta-amyloid protein into the rat cerebral ventricle induces learning impairment and neuronal and morphological degeneration

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Japanese journal of pharmacology 1997-01-01 Biomarkers

    To investigate the toxicity of beta-amyloid protein, a component of the senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease, it was infused into the cerebral ventricle of rats for 14 days by a mini-osmotic pump.

  3. Morphological diversities of CD44 positive astrocytes in the cerebral cortex of normal subjects and patients with Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Brain research 1993-12-01 Biomarkers

    The localization of CD44 was investigated immunohistochemically in postmortem human brain tissue of control subjects and patients with Alzheimer's disease.
