Synaptic density in healthy human aging is not influenced by age or sex: a 11C-UCB-J PET study
Rationale: 11C-UCB-J binds to synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A, a protein ubiquitously expressed in presynaptic nerve terminals, and can therefore serve as in vivo proxy of synaptic density. There are discrepancies in postmortem data on stability of synaptic density with healthy aging. In this study...
