Correlations between glial responses and markers of neurodegeneration in AD. Astrocytosis (A) and microgliosis (B) correlated positively with the burden of NFTs. Patients with higher astrocytosis tended to have more cortical atrophy (C), but no association was observed between the extent of microgliosis and cortical thickness (D). PHF, paired helical filament.
