Brain structure in men remains highly heritable in the seventh and eighth decades of life.

Neurobiology of aging - 1 Jan 2000

Pfefferbaum A, Sullivan E V, Swan G E, Carmelli D

Abstract excerpt

The midsagittal cross-sectional dimensions of the corpus callosum, the coronal cross-sectional area of the lateral ventricles at the level of the pons, and a three-dimensional estimate of intracranial volume were derived from magnetic resonance brain images obtained from 45 monozygotic and 40 dizygotic male twin pairs aged 68 to 78. Univariate genetic analyses indicated strong genetic influences contributing...
