Age-related Dysregulation of Autophagy Contributes to Microglial Dysfunction and Chronic Neurobehavioral Deficits After Traumatic Brain Injury
2021-11-11
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background: </bold>Elderly patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) have greater mortality and poorer outcomes than younger individuals. Given the critical role for autophagy in promoting the cellular degradation of damaged organelles and the negative impact of aging on this protective mechanism, we hypothesized that treatment with an autophagic inducer such as trehalose may be...
