Some People Keep Razor-Sharp Minds Into Their 80s and Beyond. A New Study Reveals Their Secrets: "Super-agers" seem to produce more new nerve cells in a brain region important for memory than other people their age @SmithsonianMag #BrainHealth #Superagers #Memory #HealthyAging #Neuroscience

Research Discovery: Two variants of the genotype apolipoprotein E (or APOE) may help “super agers” resist Alzheimer’s disease.
Diseases Affected: Alzheimer’s disease
Key Findings: Adults who qualified as “super agers” (people aged 80 or older whose memory and cognitive skills have not declined in 20 or 30 years) tend to have a higher frequency of APOE2 and APOE3 alleles, and a lower frequency of APOE4 alleles. APOE4 appears to be a genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s.
What's next? While further research on super agers is needed, it’s currently possible to check for APOE variants in a genetic test. A higher APOE4 frequency suggests a higher Alzheimer’s risk, but health care providers can help patients identify and minimize other potential risk factors.
A study recently published in Alzheimer’s & Dementia shares that gene variants APOE2 and APOE3 may help protect “super agers” (people aged 80 or older with the memory and cognitive skills of adults in their 50s o 60s) against #Alzheimers. #SuperAgers #APOE

SuperAgers, aged 80+, maintain memory and cognition like people 20–30 years younger. Their hippocampus generates twice as many new neurons, supporting sharp mental function even in advanced age. #SuperAgers #BrainHealth #Memory #Neuroscience #Cognition #HealthyAging

More fascinating #animals this week! These #superagers live ‘long’ healthy lives - much longer than expected for the types of animals they are. What can we learn from them?

🧠 Meet the #SuperAgers: 80+ year olds whose memory power rivals folks in their 50s. Scientists are studying them to unlock the secrets of healthy, resilient brains. Aging ≠ decline.
Did you know regular cycling could keep your immune system as strong as someone decades younger? 🚴♂️
