The LEC shows evidence of high metabolism in young unaffected individuals. (a) The entorhinal cortex was segmented into the MEC (pink) and the LEC (blue) in template brains of young wild-type mice (left) and young healthy human subjects (right). (b) In young wild-type mice (left), the LEC (blue) was found to have higher CBV values than the MEC (pink) (**F1,34 = 475.176, P < 0.001), and the left LEC was found to have higher CBV values than the right LEC (#F1,34 = 6.680, P = 0.01). In young healthy human subjects (right), the LEC (blue) was found to have higher CBV values than the MEC (pink) (*F1,34 = 706.199, P < 0.001). Data are presented as mean ± s.e.m. (c) Thresholded mean CBV maps in young wild-type mice (left) revealed that the CBV was higher in the LEC than the MEC, with the left LEC showing the highest CBV. Mean CBV maps in young healthy human subjects (right) revealed that the LEC had a higher CBV than the MEC.
