Mapping How Aging Affects Different Brain Cells
New research shows that not all brain cells age equally, with certain cells, such as those in the hypothalamus, experiencing more age-related genetic changes. These changes include reduced activity in neuronal circuitry genes and increased activity in immunity-related genes. The findings provide a detailed map of age-sensitive brain regions, offering insights into how aging may influence brain disorders like Alzheimer’s. This research could guide the development of treatments targeting aging-related brain changes and neurodegenerative diseases. ….[READ]
