Differential rescue of spatial memory deficits in aged rats by L-type voltage-dependent calcium channel and ryanodine receptor antagonism

Abstract: Age-associated memory impairments may result as a consequence of neuroinflammatory induction of intracellular calcium (Ca+2) dysregulation. Altered L-type voltage dependent calcium channel (L-VDCC) and ryanodine receptor (RyR) activity may underlie age-associated learning and memory impairments. Various neuroinflammatory markers are associated with increased activity of both L-VDCCs and RyRs, and increased neuroinflammation are associated with normal aging. In vitro, pharmacological blockade of L-VDCCs and RyR… Show more

“…Previous studies on the ADNI dataset have also reported significant genetic interactions for CACNA1C using Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging (Koran et al, 2014) and LASSO screening with candidate phenotypes (Yang et al, 2015), which all involve certain ‘ conditioning ’ for the contribution from CACNA1C to be detected. Animal AD models have confirmed several results from human studies (Hopp et al, 2014) and related pathways have been identified as a therapeutic target (Liang and Wei, 2015) for AD. Interestingly, a recent multi-site large-scale voxel level functional connectivity study, which included 939 subjects, has revealed that functional connectivity patterns in the orbitofrontal cortex region are significantly altered in depression patients (Cheng et al, 2016).…”

“…In addition, increased levels of RyR1, RyR2, and RyR3 mRNA correlate negatively with the performance of aged rats in this maze (Hopp et al, 2014). Our results expand these previous findings by showing that successful performance of a different hippocampal-dependent spatial memory task promoted significant increases in the mRNA and protein levels of RyR2/RyR3 in young rat hippocampus.…”

“…Microglia are efficient sensors of changes in the CNS microenvironment, and their neuroprotective role has been hypothesized to be impaired during aging [ 33 ]. For instance, there is an increased expression of the interleukin (IL)-6 receptor [ 34 ], which has been associated with deficits in cognitive function, and aged animals differ from young animals in physiology, pathophysiological features, and behavioral outcome after brain injury [ 35 ]. Aged brain microglia are polarized to the M1 phenotype, with a long-lasting impairment of M2 responses after ischemic injury [ 36 , 37 ].…”
