Effects of Chronic Hypertension on the Energy Metabolism of Cerebral Cortex Mitochondria in Normotensive and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats During Aging

Effects of Chronic Hypertension on Mitochondrial Energy Metabolism in the Cerebral Cortex of Normal and Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats Background Introduction Chronic hypertension has destructive structural and functional consequences for cerebral vessels and brain parenchyma. Hypertension impairs cerebrovascular autoregulation (Ferrari & Villa, 2...

Lycium Barbarum Polysaccharides Improves Cognitive Functions in ICV-STZ-Induced Alzheimer’s Disease Mice Model by Improving the Synaptic Structural Plasticity and Regulating IRS1/PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathway

Study on the Improvement of Cognitive Function in ICV-STZ-Induced Alzheimer’s Disease Mouse Model by Lycium Barbarum Polysaccharides Research Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system, characterized by progressive cognitive impairment, memory loss, personality changes, and emotion...

Compensation or Preservation? Different Roles of Functional Lateralization in Speech Perception of Older Non-Musicians and Musicians

The Impact of Music Training on Language Perception in Older Adults Under Global Aging Challenges Research Background As global population aging accelerates, the decline in language perception ability of older adults in noisy environments has become a notable issue. Older adults, even with normal hearing, often encounter the “cocktail party problem...

Alleviating CB2-dependent ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction improves chronic cerebral hypoperfusion-induced cognitive impairment

Research Overview and Background With the acceleration of global aging, the incidence of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases is also rising significantly. Elderly people over 65 are particularly susceptible to cognitive decline caused by cerebral ischemia, making Chronic Cerebral Hypoperfusion (CCH) a major cause of cognitive impairment and Vascular ...
