However, our current understanding of the decline in AHN remains male-centric, with very few studies examining the effects of age and/or running on AHN in the female brain. Our lab has recently shown that skeletal muscle-specific overexpression of Transcription Factor E-B (TFEB), a master regulator of lysosomal and mitochondrial function, mimics many of the neuroprotective benefits of exercise during aging and in the context of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathologies, but the effect of muscle-TFEB overexpression on AHN was unknown. Here we report that female AHN declines in a similar timeline as to what has been reported for the male hippocampus, following a precipitous decline at around 3 months of age that culminates at around 8 months of age.
