Article Synopsis
- The menopausal transition involves complex changes in the brain and metabolism that can lead to cognitive deficits, as observed both in humans and rodent models.
- In this study, young female rats were given a substance (VCD) to simulate menopause, and researchers examined their behavior, brain structure, metabolism, and hormonal changes over time.
- Results indicated that the rats experienced reduced spatial learning and memory, decreased hippocampal glucose uptake, and hormonal imbalances, which suggest that menopause-related ovarian function loss can negatively affect cognitive abilities and brain metabolism.
