Summary
| Description |
English: Thioflavin stain (left) and amyloid-Beta antibody immunocytochemistry (right) on adjacent sections of the hippocampus of a patient suffering from Alzheimer's disease. Thioflavin S is a fluorescent dye which binds both senile plaques (SP) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFT). Amyloid beta is a peptide derived from the amyloid precursor protein which is only found in senile plaques. The left image also has a red signal which exactly superimposes the green signal in lipofuscin granules, which are autofluorescent inclusions derived from lysosomes which accumulate in the human brain during normal aging.
