Not all cell types in the brain age the same way. A new study based on NIH-Funded brain mapping research found that some cells may undergo more changes in genetic activity as a result of aging. Initial results showed that aging decreased genetic activity in neurons, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. In contrast, genetic activity increased in cells associated with the brain’s immunity and inflammatory systems. The cells that appear to be the most sensitive to aging surround the third ventricle, a major pipeline that enables cerebrospinal fluid to pass through the hypothalamus.
