Scoperto l’ormone della super memoria

Qusto ormone fa aumentare subito le capacità cognitive (per ora solo dei topi)

Uno dei più grandi timori dell’uomo è invecchiare e perdere la memoria. Cosa rimane di noi senza il ricordo di ciò che abbiamo vissuto? Ma anche senza l’arrivo di patologie neurologiche, un calo delle prestazioni cognitive è fisiologico con l’età e può rappresentare un problema.

Ora arriva una speranza in più per i nostri neuroni: secondo una ricerca condotta all’’Università di San Francisco, esiste una molecola che nel giro di poche ore è in grado di potenziare le funzioni cognitive sia in animali giovani, sia anziani o addirittura in animali con forme di deficit cognitivo o con una malattia assimilabile al morbo di Parkinson.

In realtà si tratta di un ormone già conosciuto per i suoi effetti sulla longevià: la proteina Klotho.

Gli scienziati, come riporta la rivista Cell, hanno utilizzato un frammento della proteina e la hanno iniettato in giovani topolini. In poche ore queste cavie hanno presentato funzioni cognitive potenziate, specie nella sfera della memoria e delle capacità di orientamento spaziale.

L’esperimento ha dato frutti anche con i topolini più anziani: anche loro hanno aumentato l’orientamento e l’apprendimento. Infine, anche i topolini malati con malattie neurodegenerative (associabili al Parkinson), hanno tratto dei benefici dalla molecole.

È possibile che Klotho sortisca i suoi effetti positivi e rapidi, concludono i ricercatori, riorganizzando i ponti di comunicazione tra neuroni, ovvero i microscopici collegamenti chiamati sinapsi e quindi rendendo il cervello più resiliente.

Lo smog, ha spiegato un’altra ricerca, danneggia l’attività cognitiva del cervello.

I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your site?
Its very well written; I love what youve got to
say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.
Maybe you could space it out better?

Its like you read my mind! You seem to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.
I think that you could do with some pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that, this is wonderful blog.

An excellent read. I’ll certainly be back.

Hello, Neat post. There’s an issue with your web site in internet
explorer, would check this? IE still is the marketplace chief and
a good part of people will omit your great writing due to this problem.
