Aging Cell
Increasing a brain protein delayed signs of aging in mice
Removing the protein from brain support cells accelerated aging-related changes and impaired nervous system function in mouse experiments.Removing the protein from brain support cells accelerated aging-related changes and impaired nervous system function in mouse experiments.
Mouse studyMechanisms
Who was studiedAged male and female mice, against aged GFAP-Cre control mice
What changedBrain aging markers fell in mice with increased FGF13 compared with aged control mice
The catchCre toxicity or floxed allele effects could influence outcomes in aged mice
