27 January 2012
Géraldine Poisnel, Martine Dhilly, Olivier Moustié, Jérôme Delamare, Ahmed Abbas, Denis Guilloteau, Louisa Barré
Abstract: Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder, is characterized by the accumulation of β-amyloid peptide. In man, [18F]AV-45 with positron emission tomogra...

27 January 2012
Daniela Puzzo, Lucia Privitera, Agostino Palmeri
Abstract: One of the hot topics in Alzheimer's disease research field is the “amyloid hypothesis” postulating that the increase and deposition of beta-amyloid peptides (Aβ) is the main pathogenetic fa...
A simultaneous ERP/fMRI investigation of the P300 aging effect
27 January 2012
Redmond G. O'Connell, Joshua H. Balsters, Sophia M. Kilcullen, William Campbell, Arun W. Bokde, Robert Lai, Neil Upton, Ian H. Robertson
Abstract: One of the most reliable psychophysiological markers of aging is a linear decrease in the amplitude of the P300 potential, accompanied by a more frontal topographical orientation, but the pr...

27 January 2012
Wei Zhang, Miao Bai, Ye Xi, Jian Hao, Zhuo Zhang, Changjun Su, Gesheng Lei, Jianting Miao, Zhuyi Li
Abstract: Increased accumulation of amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) and neuroinflammation is known to exist within the Alzheimer's disease (AD) brain. However, it remains unclear which form of Aβ pathologie...

About Neurobiology of Aging

Neurobiology of Aging publishes the results of studies in behavior, biochemistry, cell biology, endocrinology, molecular biology, morphology, neurology, neuropathology, pharmacology, physiology and protein chemistry in which the primary emphasis involves mechanisms of nervous system changes with age or diseases associated with age. Reviews and primary research articles are included, occasionally accompanied by open peer commentary. Letters to the Editor and brief communications are also acceptable. Brief reports of highly time-sensitive material are usually treated as rapid communications in which case editorial review is completed within six weeks and publication scheduled for the next available issue. The accepted abbreviation for Neurobiology of Aging for bibliographic citation is Neurobiol. Aging
