Wnt Signaling in Neurogenesis during Aging and Physical Activity
Over the past decade, much progress has been made regarding our understanding of neurogenesis in both young and old animals and where it occurs throughout the lifespan, although the growth of new neurons declines with increasing age. In addition, physical activity can reverse this age-dependent decline in neurogenesis. Highly correlated with this decline is the degree of inter and intracellular...
متن کاملPhosphatase WIP1 regulates adult neurogenesis and WNT signaling during aging.
The number of newly formed neurons declines rapidly during aging, and this decrease in neurogenesis is associated with decreased function of neural stem/progenitor cells (NPCs). Here, we determined that a WIP1-dependent pathway regulates NPC differentiation and contributes to the age-associated decline of neurogenesis. Specifically, we found that WIP1 is expressed in NPCs of the mouse subventri...
متن کاملDissecting the role of Wnt signaling and its interactions with FGF signaling during midbrain neurogenesis
Interactions between FGF and Wnt/ bcat signaling control development of the midbrain. The nature of this interaction and how these regulate patterning, growth and differentiation is less clear, as it has not been possible to temporally dissect the effects of one pathway relative to the other. We have employed pharmacological and genetic tools to probe the temporal and spatial roles of FGF and W...
متن کاملGSK-3 and Wnt Signaling in Neurogenesis and Bipolar Disorder
The canonical Wnt signaling pathway is critical for development of the mammalian central nervous system and regulates diverse processes throughout adulthood, including adult neurogenesis. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) antagonizes the canonical Wnt pathway and therefore also plays a central role in neural development and adult neurogenesis. Lithium, the first line of therapy for bipolar dis...
متن کاملPhysical Activity and Aging
I am fully aware of the distinction bestowed upon me to participate in tonight's meeting held to honour the memory of Sir Adolphe Abrahams. Sir Adolphe was the founder of clinical sports medicine and I for one am greatly indebted to him for much he taught me. No one before him has brought to bear upon the study of athletics the same combination of comprehensive knowledge of internal medicine an...
