We measured cytochrome oxidase activity in thrombocytes from patients with senile dementia of the Alzheimer type. We found no decrease in enzyme activity in Alzheimer's disease patients when compared with patients with multi-infarct dementia, with young control donors, and with age-matched control donors.
