This project explores how aging affects astrocytes in the brain, particularly their role in glutamate metabolism and memory function. It aims to correlate these changes with cognitive decline through various experimental approaches.
Aging affects the brain in many ways, most notably by impairing memory function.
On a cellular level, aging causes changes in synaptic plasticity and downregulation of energy metabolism.
As our understanding of the importance of astrocytes in brain is increasing, it is clear that the knowledge on how aging affects astrocytes is lacking.
The aim is, therefore, to elucidate the role of astrocytes in aging and how homeostasis of the neurotransmitter glutamate and energy metabolism alters with age a…
