Journal ArticleDOI

Physical exercise protects against Alzheimer's disease in 3xTg-AD mice.

TL;DR: The benefits of aerobic physical exercise on synapse, redox homeostasis, and general brain function demonstrated in the 3xTg-AD mouse further support the value of this healthy life-style against neurodegeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immortalization of primary microglia: a new platform to study HIV regulation in the central nervous system

TL;DR: The immortalized cells have microglia-like morphology and express key microglial surface markers including CD11b, TGFβR, and P2RY12 and demonstrate the expected migratory and phagocytic activity, and the capacity to mount an inflammatory response characteristic of primarymicroglia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physical exercise improves synaptic dysfunction and recovers the loss of survival factors in 3xTg-AD mouse brain.

TL;DR: The synaptic proteins synaptophysin and PSD-95 and the neuroprotective proteins GDNF and SIRT1 were downregulated in 3xTgAD mice and were recovered by exercise treatment and reduced expression levels of NMDA receptor NR2B subunit were reestablished.
Journal ArticleDOI

Melatonin plus physical exercise are highly neuroprotective in the 3xTg-AD mouse.

TL;DR: Interestingly, only the combined treatment of physical exercise plus melatonin was effective against the decrease of mitochondrial complexes, suggesting melatonin plus physical exercise may exert complementary, additive, or even synergistic effects against a range of disturbances present in AD.
