A representative region of the nucleus basalis of Meynert was investigated in 11 patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease and compared with the identical region in 13 age-matched control subjects. Simultaneously, the cerebral cortex and the nucleus basalis i n the patients with Parkinson's disea
## Abstract A depletion of large cholinergic neurons in the nucleus basalis of Meynert is a consistent finding in Alzheimer's disease (AD). The nucleus basalis of Meynert also contains interneurons and afferents that may modulate its functioning. In the present study we examined neurochemical marke
Recent studies indicate that there is a marked reduction in trkA-containing nucleus basalis neurons in end-stage Alzheimer's disease (AD). We used unbiased stereological counting procedures to determine whether these changes extend to individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) without dementia
