High neural activity accelerates the decline of cognitive plasticity with age in Caenorhabditis elegans

The ability to learn progressively declines with age. Neural hyperactivity has been implicated in impairing cognitive plasticity with age, but the molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we show that chronic excitation of the Caenorhabditis elegans O(2)-sensing neurons during ageing causes a rapi...
