Reduced cognitive function, increased blood-brain-barrier transport and inflammatory responses, and altered brain metabolites in LDLr -/-and C57BL/6 mice fed a western diet

The purpose of this 2018 study was to determine if a western diet changes brain metabolism, increases blood-brain barrier (BBB) transport and inflammation, and induces cognitive impairment in C57BL/6 (WT) mice and low-density lipoprotein receptor null (LDLr -/-) mice (a model of hyperlipidemia and cognitive decline). Cognitive processes (assessed by Y-maze and radial arm water […]

Chronic hyperpalatable diet induces impairment of hippocampal-dependent memories and alters glutamatergic and fractalkine axis signaling

Chronic intake of extremely appetizing and high-calorie meals has been connected to obesity-related memory impairment and cognitive decline. It is thought that the detrimental effects of an obesogenic environment on memory are mediated by the interaction between peripheral and cerebral inflammation. However, the specific impact of obesity-related peripheral inflammation on neurotransmission systems involved in memory […]
