Popis: |
To test the hypothesis that ApoE4 may be involved in cognitive deficits associated with aging, we investigated the impact of APOE4 status and aging on the flexibility and memory components of spatial learning in mice. Young adult (6 months) and middle-aged (14 months) ApoE4, ApoE3 and C57BL/6 adult male mice were tested for flexibility in an aquatic Y-maze, and for spatio-temporal memory acquisition in the Starmaze. Our results revealed a flexibility deficit of the 6-month-old ApoE4 mice compared to controls. However, this deficit was not associated with spatio-temporal memory deficit at the same age. Importantly, the ApoE4 flexibility deficit did not increase with age, nor turn into memory deficit, or was able to predict individual variations of memory performance at 14 months. By contrast, control ApoE3 mice showed a decline of flexibility at 14 months resulting in performance similar to that of ApoE4. Overall, our results suggest that ApoE4 could be associated with an acceleration of the flexibility decrease otherwise observed in normal aging. |
