Oxidation and Cognitive Impairment in the Aging Zebrafish
9 Jul 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The zebrafish has become an established model organism in aging research giving insight into general aging processes in vertebrates. Oxidative stress in aging may damage proteins and lipids in brain cells. Enhanced levels of oxidized macromolecules exert neurotoxic effects that could lead to disturbances in neuronal functioning and cognitive skills. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate a possible...
