ReviewMemory and Executive Function in Aging and AD : Multiple Factors that Cause Decline and Reserve Factors
ences on memory decline arise, in part, from a disturbance of cortical networks involving precuneus extending into retrosplenial and posterior cingulate cortex. Table 1 defines terms that will be used throughout the review. Multiple Factors Contribute to Memory Decline in Aging Two frameworks have been proposed to understand cognitive aging that differ as to whether they hypothe-Memory decline ...
متن کاملDecline in skeletal muscle mitochondrial function with aging in humans.
Cumulative mtDNA damage occurs in aging animals, and mtDNA mutations are reported to accelerate aging in mice. We determined whether aging results in increased DNA oxidative damage and reduced mtDNA abundance and mitochondrial function in skeletal muscle of human subjects. Studies performed in 146 healthy men and women aged 18-89 yr demonstrated that mtDNA and mRNA abundance and mitochondrial A...
متن کاملStructure-function correlates of cognitive decline in aging.
To explore neural correlates of cognitive decline in aging, we used longitudinal behavioral data to identify two groups of older adults (n = 40) that differed with regard to whether their performance on tests of episodic memory remained stable or declined over a decade. Analysis of structural and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) revealed a heterogeneous set of differences associated with cognitiv...
متن کاملMemory and Executive Function in Aging and AD Multiple Factors that Cause Decline and Reserve Factors that Compensate
Memory decline in aging results from multiple factors that influence both executive function and the medial temporal lobe memory system. In advanced aging, frontal-striatal systems are preferentially vulnerable to white matter change, atrophy, and certain forms of neurotransmitter depletion. Frontal-striatal change may underlie mild memory difficulties in aging that are most apparent on tasks d...
متن کاملInhibitory attentional mechanisms and aging.
Two experiments sought to elicit distractor suppression in older adults. Experiment 1 used a procedure that increased suppression in younger adults, thus creating a more sensitive measure of suppression in older adults. To compensate for older adults' slowed processing, Experiment 2 used a longer stimulus exposure duration. Neither experiment produced suppression in older adults; both experimen...
