Excerpt

In Alzheimer's disease (AD) the loss of neurons in the hippocampal CA3 regions is present. In rats treated by sodium azide (NaN3) via subcutaneously implanted osmotic minipumps number of CA3 cells were decreased [1]. We developed a new method to produce AD-like dementia using single intracerebrally (ic.) injected NaN3 in rats. …
