Project description:Neural imaging, genetics, and circulating biomarkers are being developed to differentiate normal aging from diseases that affect cognition. The blood based biomarkers, such as plasma exosome could provide a simple and relatively inexpensive means for tracking the progression of cognitive decline and effectiveness of treatments, as well as providing information on mechanism for cognitive impairment.

Project description:In this study, we examine the effect of cranial osteopathic manipulation (COM) on gene expression, in an animal model for age-related cognitive decline (aged rats). We found that COM significantly affected the expression of 36 genes in the neuronal pathway (False Discovery Rate (FDR) < 0.004). The top five neuronal genes with the largest fold-change (Slc5a7, Chat, Slc18a3, Adcy5 and Cacna2d2, >2-fold change, FDR<0.004) are part of the cholinergic neurotransmission mechanism, which is known to affect cognitive function.

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify alterations in hippocampal synaptic mRNA expression with aging and cognitive decline. Transcriptional profiling and subsequent bioinformatic analysis was performed to identify the most highly regulated pathways of genes. Interestingly, the antigen processing and presentation pathway was identified as the most highly regulated pathway with aging. Adult (12 month) and aged (28 month) Fischer 344 x Brown Norway (F1) hybrid rats were assessed for cognitive performance using the Morris water maze task and were divided into Adult (n=5), Aged Cognitively Intact (n=8), and Aged Cognitively Impaired (n=7) groups. One week following testing, all animals were sacrificed, the hippocampi were dissected, and synaptosomes were isolated for subsequent transcriptomic profiling. Only 5 cognitively intact animals were processed on the arrays.

Project description:Neuronal activity regulates cognition and neural stem cell (NSC) function. The molecular pathways limiting neuronal activity during aging remain largely unknown. In this work, we show that p38MAPK activity increases in neurons with age. By using mice expressing p38α-lox and CamkII-Cre alleles (p38α∆-N), we demonstrate that genetic deletion of p38α in neurons suffices to reduce age-associated elevation of p38MAPK activity, neuronal loss and cognitive decline. Moreover, aged p38α∆-N mice present elevated numbers of NSCs in the hippocampus and the subventricular zone. These results reveal novel roles for neuronal p38MAPK in age-associated NSC exhaustion and cognitive decline.

Project description:Normal aging process is accompanied by cognitive decline. Studies have shown that the hypothalamus plays an important role in regulating aging and cognition. However, the exact molecular mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, the present study aimed to identify predictors of aging cognitive decline in the hypothalamus. The behavioral experiment was used to identify learning and memory differences between young and old mice. Transcriptome sequencing was performed on the hypothalamus of young and old mice to identify potential genes.Our data provide the related genes ,which may be potential predictors of cognitive function in the elderly population, which will establish an important foundation for us to further explore the molecular mechanism.

Project description:Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with increased risk of cognitive decline although the precise underlying pathogenesis remains obscure. Based on the single-cell RNA sequencing approach applied to the cerebral cortex of a T2D mouse model (db/db), we identified novel regulatory mechanisms underlying diabetes-associated cognitive deficits. Our data adds detail to the highly complex neurovascular pathology associated with T2D and highlights key cell-specific deficits in mitochondrial bioenergetics linked to neuroinflammation, which underlie T2D-linked cognitive impairment.

Project description:Aging is the predominant risk factor for neurodegenerative diseases. One key phenotype as brain ages is the aberrant innate immune response characterized by proinflammation. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying aging-associated proinflammation are poorly defined. Whether chronic inflammation plays a causal role in cognitive decline in aging and neurodegeneration has not been established. Here we established a mechanistic link between chronic inflammation and aging microglia, and demonstrated a causal role of aging microglia in neurodegenerative cognitive deficits. Expression of microglial SIRT1 reduces with the aging of microglia. Genetic reduction of microglial SIRT1 elevates IL-1β selectively, and exacerbates cognitive deficits in aging and in transgenic mouse models of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Interestingly, the selective activation of IL-1β transcription by SIRT1 deficiency is likely mediated through hypomethylating the proximal promoter of IL-1β. Consistent with our findings in mice, selective hypomethylation of IL-1β at two CpG sites are found in normal aging humans and demented patients with tauopathy. Our findings reveal a novel epigenetic mechanism in aging microglia that contributes to cognitive deficits in neurodegenerative diseases.

Project description:Recent microarray studies in the hippocampus of rodents or Alzheimerâs disease (AD) subjects have identified a substantial number of cellular pathways/processes correlated with aging and cognitive decline. However, the temporal relationships among these expression changes or with cognitive impairment have not been studied in depth. Here, using Affymetrix microarrays, immunohistochemistry and Morris water maze cognitive testing across 5 age groups of male F344 rats (n=9-15/group, one microarray per animal), we systematically analyzed the temporal sequence and cellular localization of aging changes in expression. These were correlated with performance scores on the hippocampus-dependent Morris Water Maze task. Significant microarray results were sorted in to Early, Intermediate, Midlife, and Late patterns of expression, and functionally categorized (Early- downregulated neural development, lipid synthesis and energy-utilization; upregulated ribosomal synthesis, growth, stress/inflammatory, lysosome and protein/lipid degradation. Intermediate- increased defense/inflammatory activation and decreased transporter activity; Midlife- downregulated energy-dependent signaling and neurite growth, upregulated astroglial activation, Ca2+-binding, cholesterol/lipid trafficking, myelinogenic processes and additional lysosome/inflammation; Late- further recruitment of genes in already-altered pathways). Immunohistochemistry revealed a primarily astrocytic localization of the processes upregulated in midlife, as well as increased density of myelin proteins. Evidence of cognitive impairment first appeared in the 12-month-old group (midlife) and was increased further in the 23-month-old group, exhibiting the highest correlations with some upregulated genes related to cholesterol transport (e.g., Apoe, Abca2), protein management and ion binding. Some upregulated genes for inflammation (Il6st) and myelinogenesis (Pmp22) also correlated with impairment. Together, the data are consistent with a novel sequential cascade model of brain aging in which metabolic alterations early in maturity are followed by inflammation and midlife activation of an astrocyte-centered cholesterol trafficking pathway that stimulates oligodendrocyte remyelination programs. Importantly, this cholesterol trafficking pathway also may compete for astroglial bioenergetic support of neurons, in turn, leading to downregulation of energy-dependent pathways needed to sustain cognitive functions. Experiment Overall Design: Fisher 344 rats aged 3 (n = 9), 6 (n = 9), 9 (n = 9), 12 (n = 9), or 25 (n = 15; but see below) months were behaviorally characterized on the Morris water maze. Briefly, animals were placed in a circular water bath chamber with a partially submerged platform. Three times per day for three days, animals were placed at randomized starting points with the goal of locating the hidden platform. Generally, animals became better at locating the platform, and by the third day of training, were reliably swimming directly to the platform despite randomized starting loci. On the fourth day, the platform was removed and the degree to which the animals focused their searches on the area that previously contained the platform was measured. On the last day of behavior, animals were given a cue trial in which the platform was raised above the water level so that the rats could see it. Measures taken from the behavior study included path length (how long did the animal swim prior to locating the platform/ platform area), latency to platform in seconds, and velocity (centimeters/ second; swim speed). Two aged animals (E2 and E12) were removed from the study for poor health, reducing the 23 month cohort (n = 13). Twelve to twenty four hours after the last behavioral session, animals were killed and their hippocampi removed. The right hippocampus went to immunohistochemistry for quantification and localization of selected protein products. The left hippocampus was dissected, the CA1 region removed and frozen in dry ice prior to microarray processing. mRNA was extracted from each animal's tissue by standard Affymetrix protocols (see Blalock et al., 2003) and hybridized to individual microarrays (RAE 230A; N = 49 arrays in total). Results were processed with the MAS5 algorithm and subjected to âall probe setâ scaling with a target intensity of 500. Probe sets were filtered for presence (> = 5 presence calls study wide) and gene symbol level annotation prior to statistical analysis. 1-ANOVA across age was used to identify aging-related probe sets/genes (p <= 0.05). Aging-related genes were subjected to post hoc template correlation to determine the pattern of age-related change, and further, within the 12 and 23 month old groups, Pearson's correlation with behavioral scores was used to identify genes whose expression levels correlated significantly (p <= 0.05) with behavior. Twelve and 23 month old groups were chosen for this correlation analysis as they showed the greatest variability among similarly aged animals, suggesting that these ages show important cognitive transition phases during aging-related cognitive decline. Functional grouping analysis was performed using the DAVID suite of on-line tools.
