Stimulating neuron formation restores memory in mice with Alzheimer’s disease – Neuroscience News
Overview: Increasing neurogenesis by deleting the Bax gene in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease improved the animals’ performance in tests measuring spatial recognition and contextual memory. Source: Rockefeller University Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago have found that increasing the production of new neurons in mice with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) rescues the animals’ memory …
