“…Impaired autophagy/lysosomal protein degradation has been associated with the accumulation of misfolded proteins. Therefore, we performed a dot blot analysis to evaluate the presence of amyloid fibrils, using the OC antibody (OC + ) in Tris‐buffered saline (TBS) containing 1% TX‐100 (TBS‐TX) and TBS fractions, which are generally used to evaluate intracellular and extracellular protein aggregate load, respectively (Pignataro et al, 2019). The OC antibody recognizes epitopes common to different types of amyloid fibrils, including those made of Aβ and α‐syn aggregates (Kayed et al, 2007), hereon defined as “amyloid load.” Impaired mice showed a significant TBS‐TX accumulation of OC + amyloid fibrils compared to Preserved mice (Figure 3a).…”

“…In vitro evidence that neuronal activity increases the formation and release of Aβ peptides in hippocampal neurons overexpressing APP which then shows impairment in excitatory synaptic transmission (Kamenetz et al, 2003 ) provides a plausible explanatory framework. However, in vivo evidence (Pignataro et al, 2019 ) that cognitive activity enhances Aβ release in the hippocampus of 2-month-old Tg2576 mice and prevents the learning-induced formation of spines in this region indicates that contrary to the beneficial effect of diffuse EE-related sensorial/social stimulation on cognition, focused cognitive activity increases Aβ load in regions supporting high cognitive functions which accelerates the cognitive decline. This aspect should be carefully considered in designing cognitive stimulation protocols aimed at preventing cognitive deterioration at the onset of mild cognitive impairments.…”

“…Several recent animal studies provide descriptions of plastic properties involved in the recruitment of different circuits to compensate for brain aging and pathology of the hippocampus (Zelikowsky et al, 2013;Pignataro et al, 2019). Contextual fear conditioning normally depends on the hippocampus and in an AD model, preserved memory was observed despite a decrease in hippocampal activation (Pignataro et al, 2019). Rather, increased activation and dendritic spine growth were observed in the amygdala.…”
