A Focus on the Importance of Synaptic Plasticity in Age-Related Neurodegeneration
The brain’s synaptic plasticity, crucial for memory and learning, declines with age, contributing to cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases. Research into enhancing synaptic plasticity in aging brains is essential for combating cognitive decline. Age-related changes in synaptic connections affect cognitive functions and overall quality of life. The review delves into the complex dynamics of brain aging, synaptic plasticity, and factors influencing cognitive decline in older adults. Exploring the role of lifestyle in neuronal plasticity is crucial for promoting successful cognitive aging.
