Abstract
⺠Rat model of aging exhibits impaired spatial learning and memory similar to humans. ⺠Plasticity-associated proteins are dysregulated specifically with cognitive decline. ⺠Expression of plasticity-mediating proteins correlates with cognitive performance. ⺠Cognition-specific changes occur in conjunction with age-related alterations. ⺠Dysregulation occurs throughout the hippocampal formation.
