Abstract:Background: The diverse roles of ubiquitously present translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) have been well delineated in several organs, but its possible function in the brain, especially with regard to memory function, has not received much attention. This study describes the effects of TCTP on mice with memory impaired by scopolamine (SCO) administration. Specifically, the memory and synaptic functions of 7- and 12-month-old SCO-treated wild mice (WT) were compared with those of TCTP-overexpressing… Show more
