Brain magnetic resonance images showing the effects of Amino LP7 and diet on brain atrophy

Caption

Brain atrophy occurred in the Alzheimer's mouse model, which was accelerated by a low protein diet and suppressed by Amino LP7. Arrowheads indicate the ventricles, which were observed to grow larger in tandem with brain atrophy.
