Senescent astrocytic deposits drive cognitive decline by disrupting tripartite synapse in the aging brain
2025-11-02
Abstract excerpt
Brain aging involves synapse decline, with astrocytes playing a key role in synapse homeostasis. However, the impact of astrocyte senescence on synaptic dysfunction and cognitive decline remains unclear. Here, we identified a hallmark of aging astrocytes—Senescent Astrocytic Deposits (SAD) observed at aged rodents, macaques, and human hippocampal astrocytic processes —that is associated with tripartite synapse dys...
