Movement Mobilizes Microglia, Astrocytes to Protect Against Alzheimer's in snRNA-seq Mice Study

Using single-nuclei RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq), scientists from Mass General Brigham, SUNY Upstate Medical University, and elsewhere have identified specific brain cell types in the hippocampus that respond best to physical exercise in mouse models of Alzheimer’s disease. The findings help to elucidate the connection between exercise and brain health, and offer fresh insights into potential treatment strategies for people living with Alzheimer’s…
