Tag: neurodegeneration in mouse study

Researchers announced earlier this month that they had found a link between a western diet and cognitive decline and neurodegeneration in a study using mice.null Published in the Cell Press journal iScience, the Marshall University authors said that the diet creates these impacts on the brain through increased Na,K-ATPase signaling in adipocytes.  Na,K-ATPase is a cellular sodium-potassium pump and adipocytes are fat cells and are…
