Figure 7.
PCR analysis of the DNA content in layer V pyramidal neurons of the entorhinal (EC) and occipital cortices (OC) in six control and six AD cases to exclude interindividual differences in alu repeats. Contrary to controls, the average DNA content of entorhinal neurons was elevated compared with occipital neurons in AD cases. Shown are mean values ± SEM of 10–15 cells per specimen. * p ≤ 0.05, Student's t test.
