Restoration of Neuronal Progenitors by Partial Reprogramming in the Aged Neurogenic Niche

Scientific Research Report Background Introduction For a long time, aging has been considered an irreversible process. However, recent research suggests that aging is a biological process that can be regulated. Various interventions have been shown to delay or even reverse certain characteristics of aging. Partial reprogramming is a method that rev...

Adherence to the Planetary Health Diet and Cognitive Decline: Findings from the ELSA-Brasil Study

In the global context, the Planetary Health Diet has been proposed as a way to improve human health while protecting the Earth. However, studies on the relationship between the Planetary Health Diet and cognitive decline are very limited. To fill this research gap, researchers Natalia Gomes Gonçalves, Leandro Teixeira Cacau, Naomi Vidal Ferreira, P...

GDF1 Ameliorates Cognitive Impairment Induced by Hearing Loss

Improvement of Cognitive Impairment Induced by Hearing Loss Background Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a common dementia characterized by extracellular amyloid plaques formed by aggregation of amyloid-β (Aβ) and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles formed by aggregated tau protein. Epidemiological studies indicate a close correlation between hearing l...
