| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Analyses by immunohistochemistry, in situ hybridization and real-time PCR revealed SCD2 dominant, rather than SCD1, expression was detected in neurons of mice. SCD-immunoreactivity (IR) tends to distribute in thin dendritic processes showing fine granular patterns during postnatal development, but increased SCD-IR was detected in 3 x Tg AD mice as compared with wild type mice at postnatal six months, showing coarse granular and segmental distribution in dendrites. Relatively large spines, swollen like a bead, were observed along dendrite and synaptobrevin-IR was decreased. These findings suggest the possibility that early lesions of AD appear in dendrite of the hippocampus and SCD is involved in the processes
