An experimental simulation environment suitable for exploring the neuroinflammatory hypothesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has been developed. Using scientific literature, we have calculated parameters and rates and constructed an interactive model system. The simulation can be manipulated to explor
The sequestration of RNA in Alzheimer's disease (AD) senile plaques (SPs) and the production of intraneuronal amyloid- peptides (A) prompted analysis of the mRNA profile in single immunocytochemically identified SPs in sections of AD hippocampus. By using amplified RNA expression profiling, polyme
The distribution and density of neurofibrillary tangles and amyloid plaques was studied in a unique series of cases whose premortem cognitive status had been assessed with the Clinical Dementia Rating (CDR), including 39 nondemented cases (CDR ؍ 0; age, 51-88 years), 15 very mildly demented cases
Chemotactic cells known as microglia are involved in the inflammation associated with pathology in Alzheimer's disease (AD). We investigate conditions that lead to aggregation of microglia and formation of local accumulations of chemicals observed in AD senile plaques. We develop a model for chemota
