Retrograde cell degeneration in the basal nucleus in monkey and man.
Retrograde cellular degeneration has been found in the basal nucleus of Meynert in macaque monkeys after large lesions of the neocortex, and in the human brain after either hemidecortication or leucotomy. These observations may be relevant to the interpretation of the cellular degeneration in the basal nucleus in Alzheimer's disease.
