Altered calcium (Ca 2ุ ) homeostasis is thought to play a key role in aging and neuropathology resulting in memory deficits. Several forms of hippocampal synaptic plasticity are dependent on Ca 2ุ , providing a potential link between altered Ca 2ุ homeostasis and memory deficits associated with agin
The cytokine tumor necrosis factor-โฃ (TNF), well-known for its roles in cellular responses to tissue injury, has recently been shown to be produced in response to physiological activity in neuronal circuits. TNF stimulates receptors in neurons linked to the activation of the transcription factor NF-
