Adropin correlates with aging-related neuropathology in humans and improves cognitive function in aging mice

Abstract The neural functions of adropin, a secreted peptide highly expressed in the brain, have not been investigated. In humans, adropin is highly expressed in astrocytes and peaks during critical postnatal periods of brain development. Gene enrichment analysis of transcripts correlating with adro...
