Abstract excerpt
Presenilin-1 gene (PS1, s182) encoding a protein that contains seven transmembrane domains was recently identified as a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Mutations on this gene may contribute to pathogenesis of AD. In this study, we used in situ hybridization histochemistry to detect the expression of PS1 in neurons in the hippocampal formation and cerebral cortex of the rat brain. Specifically, mRNAs of...
