Quantitation of synaptic density in the septal nuclei of young and aged Fischer 344 rats.

Abstract:

:Synaptic density in the medial and lateral septal nuclei was examined in 3 and 24-28 months of age Fischer 344 rats. The lateral nucleus had a higher synaptic density than the medial region in both age groups. There were no statistically significant differences in synapse density in either region as a function of age, but the data suggested a subpopulation of aged animals which did show an age-related decline in synaptic density in the lateral, but not medial area of the septum. These data indicate that sample size may be an important variable in assessing possible age-related differences in synaptic density, since a broad range of values, some significantly below the range of young animals, exists in the aged brain.
