Sleep Deprivation Induces Glial Dysfunction, Synaptic Loss, Metabolic Imbalance, and Cognitive Impairment in 12‐Month‐Old Mice: Protective Effects of D30
ABSTRACT Background Sleep deprivation (SD) has been increasingly implicated in age‐related cognitive decline. However, the mechanisms linking SD duration to progressive disruption of glial homeostasis, synaptic vulnerability, and metabolic dysregulation remain poorly defined. Methods We employed 12‐month‐old Thy1‐EGFP...
