Impact of cognitive performance and normal aging on transcriptomic changes in the prefrontal cortex of rats

We investigated how cognitive stimulation impacts gene expression in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), a brain region known to regulate higher cognitive functions including the control of attention, in young and aged rats.本研究以幼年与老年大鼠为对象，探究了认知刺激对其前额叶皮层（prefrontal cortex, PFC）基因表达的影响；前额叶皮层是已知可调控包括注意力控制在内的高级认知功能的脑区。
