Abstract
Severe neurofibrillary changes were identified in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of elderly individuals using markers for Alzheimer's disease-related intraneuronal pathology. This neurofibrillary pathology is remarkable in that the magnocellular paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei are particularly resistant to Alzheimer's disease. Moreover, the changes were observed even in non-demented controls, indicating that they develop independently of Alzheimer's disease. The alterations in the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei were consistently accompanied by neurofibrillary changes in the mediobasal hypothalamus.Entities:
