Sex-differences in age-related cognitive decline in C57BL/6J mice associated with increased brain microtubule-associated protein 2 and synaptophysin immunoreactivity

TL;DR: Elevated levels of microtubule-associated protein 2 and synaptophysin may constitute a compensatory response to age-related functional decline in mice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Irradiation attenuates neurogenesis and exacerbates ischemia‐induced deficits

TL;DR: Impairments after cerebral global ischemia under conditions of reduced neurogenesis support a role for the production of new cells in mediating functional recovery, and suggest that functional recovery after stroke may be attributed in part to neural regeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Apolipoprotein E and cognitive performance

TL;DR: Testing the spatial memory of transgenic mice carrying human forms of apolipoprotein E finds that it is impaired in mice with ApoE4 but not those with apoE3, even though the levels of β-amyloid in their brains are comparable.
Journal ArticleDOI

A WAVE-1 and WRP Signaling Complex Regulates Spine Density, Synaptic Plasticity, and Memory

TL;DR: Gene targeting experiments in mice demonstrate that WRP anchoring to WAVE-1 is a homeostatic mechanism that contributes to neuronal development and the fidelity of synaptic connectivity, which implies that signaling through WAve-1 complexes is essential for neural plasticity and cognitive behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loss of WAVE-1 causes sensorimotor retardation and reduced learning and memory in mice

TL;DR: Targeted disruption of the WAVE-1 gene generated mice with reduced anxiety, sensorimotor retardation, and deficits in hippocampal-dependent learning and memory, analogous to the symptoms of patients with 3p-syndrome mental retardation who are haploinsufficient for WRP/MEGAP.
