Grant Activity:
The role of microglia in the effects of environmental enrichment in neurodegenerative disorders
Purpose:
Environmental enrichment (EE) is a powerful preclinical manipulation with remarkable therapeutic promise for neurodegenerative diseases, however its molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we will study the role of inflammatory brain cells in mediating clinical and pathological benefits of EE in models of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and motor neuron disease (MND). Gene targets in microglia mediating benefits of EE will be identified which could be therapeutically exploited in neurodegeneration.
