Analysis of hippocampus from F344 rats fed dietary supplement of cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) at doses of 10,000, 1000 and 100 IU/kg diet for 18 weeks. Results provide insight into molecular mechanisms underlying vitamin D-mediated synaptic function enhancement.

(Submitter supplied) Vitamin D is an important calcium-regulating hormone with diverse functions in numerous tissues including the brain. Increasing evidence suggests that vitamin D may play a role in maintaining cognitive function and that vitamin D deficiency may accelerate age-related cognitive decline. Using aging rodents, we attempted to model the range of human serum vitamin D levels, from deficient to sufficient, to test whether vitamin D could preserve or improve cognitive function with aging. more...

(Submitter supplied) Male Fischer 344 rats aged 4 months (young, n=10), 14 months (mid-aged, n=10), and 24 months (aged, n=10) were trained sequentially on two tasks: Morris Spatial Water Maze (SWM) and Object Memory Task (OMT). The training/testing sequence lasted 7 d, and hippocampal tissue was collected 24 hr later. Training and testing occured on each day except for days 2 and 3 of the 7 d sequence.

(Submitter supplied) Although immediate early genes (IEGs) such as Bdnf, Arc and Egr1, have been implicated in plasticity, the larger pathways related to memory and memory disorders are not well understood. Here, we combined statistical Affymetrix microarray and behavioral analyses to identify key genes and pathways associated with aging-related cognitive impairment. Aged rats were separated into cognitively unimpaired (AU) or impaired (AI) groups, based on their Morris water maze performance relative to young-adult (Y) animals. more...

Analysis of hippocampi from aged learning-impaired animals on the last day of training in the Morris water maze (MWZ) or 21 days post-training. The MWZ task is a dorsal hippocampal-dependent task. Results provide insight into the molecular basis of aging-related cognitive impairment.

(Submitter supplied) Hippocampal overexpression of FK506-binding protein 12.6/1b (FKBP1b), a negative regulator of ryanodine receptor Ca2+ release, reverses aging-induced memory impairment and neuronal Ca2+ dysregulation. Here, we test the hypothesis that FKBP1b also can protect downstream transcriptional networks from aging-induced dysregulation. We gave hippocampal microinjections of FKBP1b-expressing viral vector to male rats at either 13-months-of-age (long-term) or 19-months-of-age (short-term) and tested memory performance in the Morris water maze at 21-months-of-age. more...

(Submitter supplied) The project examined age-related change in hippocampal gene expression in Fisher 344 x Brown Norway F1 rats from the NIA aging colony (Adult = 12M, Aged = 24M). CA1, CA3, and DG specific dissections were examined from one cohort of animals and from a second cohort whole hippocampus was used.

(Submitter supplied) Previous studies of age-related transcriptional changes indicate that cognitive impairments are associated with differentially expressed genes DEGs linked to defined neural systems; however, studies that examine multiple regions of the hippocampus fail to find major links between behavior and transcription in the dentate gyrus DG. The DG is implicated in pattern separation PS and exhibits multiple age-related changes that may affect PS performance. more...
