Irisin reduces #amyloid-β by inducing the release of neprilysin from #astrocytes following downregulation of ERK-STAT3 signaling
A pathological hallmark of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the deposition of amyloid-β (Aβ) protein in the brain. Physical exercise has been shown to reduce Aβ burden in various AD mouse models, but the underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Irisin, an exercise-induced hormone, is the secreted form of fibronectin type-III-domain-containing 5 (FNDC5). Here, using a… Continue reading Irisin reduces #amyloid-β by inducing the release of neprilysin from #astrocytes following downregulation of ERK-STAT3 signaling

Visceral and Subcutaneous #Abdominal #Fat Predict #Brain Volume Loss at Midlife in 10,001 Individuals
AbstractAbdominal fat is increasingly linked to brain health. A total of 10,001 healthy participants were scanned on 1.5T MRI with a short whole-body MR imaging protocol. Deep learning with FastSurfer segmented 96 brain regions. Separate models segmented visceral and subcutaneous abdominal fat. Regression analyses of abdominal fat types and normalized brain volumes were evaluated, controlling… Continue reading Visceral and Subcutaneous #Abdominal #Fat Predict #Brain Volume Loss at Midlife in 10,001 Individuals
