Cortical Dendritic Changes in Mouse Models of Frontotemporal Dementia

Author(s):

Ramy R. Mitwalli*

Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is a pre-senile dementia that is characterized by rapid, progressive neural deterioration and atrophy in the frontal lobe. As the disease progresses, the deterioration eventually advances to the temporal lobe as well.
