    Nat Med 4:827-31. 1998
    ..Thus, longevity may contribute to the unique susceptibility of humans to Alzheimer's disease by rendering the brain vulnerable to Abeta neurotoxicity...
  2. ncbi Focal pathology in the Edinger-Westphal nucleus explains pupillary hypersensitivity in Alzheimer's disease
    L F Scinto
    Department of Neurology, Brigham and Women s Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA 02138, USA
    Acta Neuropathol 97:557-64. 1999
    ..In contrast, the adjacent somatic portion of the oculomotor complex was virtually spared of pathology. Early pathology in the EW is likely to initiate a cascade of events that may give rise to pupillary hypersensitivity...

    Bullard and Denny Brown Laboratories, Department of Neurology, Harvard Medical School, Beth Israel Hospital, Boston, MA 02215
    Brain Res 498:185-9. 1989
    ..In comparison to the cholinesterases of the normal brain, the plaque and tangle-bound cholinesterases in Alzheimer's disease display major shifts in optimum pH and inhibitor sensitivity...
  5. ncbi Increased susceptibility to generalized seizures after immunolesions of the basal forebrain cholinergic neurons in rats
    D C Silveira
    Department of Neurology, Children s Hospital and Harvard Medical School, 300 Longwood Avenue, Enders 320, Boston, MA 02115, USA
    Brain Res 878:223-7. 2000
    ..Lesioned rats had significantly shorter latencies to onset of generalized tonic-clonic seizures than controls. Our findings suggest that basal forebrain cholinergic neurons may participate in the modulation of generalized seizures...
