Altered Oligodendrocyte Function Linked to Cognitive Decline in Aging
Key Takeaways
- Study published in Nature Medicine examines cognitive decline in aging.
- Researchers used a human brain tissue bank paired with cognitive data across the lifespan.
- Findings implicate altered oligodendrocyte function as a promoter of age-related cognitive decline.
- Oligodendrocytes are responsible for myelination and neuron support, essential for fast signaling.
