Signaling by target of rapamycin (mTOR in mammals) has been shown to modulate lifespan in several model organisms ranging from yeast to mice. In mice, reduced mTOR signaling by chronic rapamycin treatment leads to life span extension, raising the possibility that rapamycin and its analogs may benefit the aging brain and serve as effective treatments of age-related neurodegenerative diseases. Here,...
Activity‐dependent changes in gene‐expression are believed to underlie the molecular representation of memory. In this study, we report that in vivo activation of neurons rapidly induces the CREB‐regulated microRNA miR‐132. To determine if production of miR‐132 is regulated by neuronal activity its expression in mouse brain was monitored by quantitative RT‐PCR (RT‐qPCR). Pilocarpine‐induced seizures...
