Alzheimer’s disease is the most common type of dementia with a still largely unclear etiopathology. One of the factors that may directly contribute to the development and progression of the disorder is the abundant accumulation of beta-amyloid peptides (A beta) in senile plaques. In the present account we review coherent in vivo experimental evidence that A beta infusion into the rat magnocellular nucleus basalis (MBN) induces abrupt and persistent behavioral dysfunctions, perturbations of…
