Abstract

We evaluated the effects of long-term glycerophosphocholine (GPC) intake on microglia, the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and neurogenesis in senescence-accelerated mice prone 8 (SAMP8). The GPC intake suppressed microglial activation and BBB disruption and sustained doublecortin-positive cells in the hippocampus. The results indicate that GPC intake exerts anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects in the brain of aged mice.
