Abstract excerpt
Isolation and culture of mature neurons from affected brain regions during diseased states provide a well-suited in vitro model system to study age-related neurodegeneration under dynamic conditions at cellular levels. We have developed a novel technique to isolate living neurons from rapidly autopsied human elderly brains, and have succeeded in keeping them alive in vitro. Specifically, the parietal cortex...
