From: Changes in glial cell phenotypes precede overt neurofibrillary tangle formation, correlate with markers of cortical cell damage, and predict cognitive status of individuals at Braak III-IV stages

Number of CD68 + microglia was significantly higher in the temporal pole and visual cortex of demented but not in resilient when compared to control brains (a). A similar trend that did not reach statistical significance was observed in the number of HLA-DR + microglia (a). Representative photomicrographs of CD68 + and HLD-DR + microglia on sections from control, resilient and demented cases containing temporal pole are displayed on the right (b). C Control (Braak 0-II); R Resilient (Braak III/IV); D Demented (Braak III/IV); *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ****p < 0.0001. Scale bars 50 μm
