Age-related cognitive decline in spatial learning and memory of C57BL/ 6J mice

Jhana O. Hendrickx et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the neurobehavioral phenotyping of hippocampus-dependent spatial learning and memory in aging C57BL/6J mice using the Morris Water Maze and Novel Object Recognition tests. The results indicated age-related memory loss in the animals starting at 6 months, as shown by decreased discrimination indexes and recognition indexes. These findings contribute to understanding the spontaneous cognitive behaviors of the widely used C57BL/6J mouse strain and can serve as a benchmark for distinguishing spontaneous from pathological neurodegenerative behavior in dementia mouse models.

Rapid Aging in the Perforant Path Projections to the Rodent Dentate Gyrus

Mohammad Amani et al.

Summary: The deterioration of layers II/III of the entorhinal cortex in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease may be due to impaired presynaptic long-term potentiation, reduced endocannabinoid signaling, and decreased TrkB receptor levels. These changes suggest that synaptic plasticity in EC projections related to memory is particularly sensitive to aging, leading to potential pathogenesis later in life.

Cannabinoid receptor 1 expression is higher in muscle of old vs. young males, and increases upon resistance exercise in older adults

Sebastiaan Dalle et al.

Summary: The study revealed differential expression of CB1 and CB2 in muscle of older adults compared to young adults, with resistance exercise showing a tendency to increase both CB1 and CB2 expression. Increases in CB2 expression following resistance exercise correlated positively with changes in key mechanisms of muscle homeostasis, suggesting potential for CB-based strategies to counteract sarcopenia.

Efficacy of delta(9) -Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) Alone or in Combination With a 1:1 Ratio of Cannabidiol (CBD) in Reversing the Spatial Learning Deficits in Old Mice

Prakash Nidadavolu et al.

Summary: The use of Δ9-THC was found to improve cognitive function in aged mice, while the combination of Δ9-THC and CBD in a 1:1 ratio did not have the same effect. The presence of CBD altered the metabolism of Δ9-THC, causing a more rapid decline in its beneficial effects.
