Multiple studies on postmortem Alzheimer's disease (AD) brains have shown depleted neuropeptide content and morphological abnormalities of somatostatin (SS)-containing interneurons in the hippocampus and the cerebral cortex ... AD patients were found to have reduced 125I-Tyr11-SS-14 receptor densities in the frontal cortex ,.. Excitotoxic lesion of the nucleus basalis magnocellularis (NbM) with ibotenic acid transiently decreased neocortical SS receptor binding densities indicating that a subpopulation of SS receptors is located on cholinergic afferents ...
