This thesis by compilation consists of five original publications describing the analyses I have performed during my candidature investigating the role of genetic, environmental and lifestyle risk factors in normal cognitive aging. All five publications have been published in Q1 ranked journals according to the SCImago Journal & Country Rankings in the fields of neurology, genetics, psychiatry and mental health, and geriatric and gerontology. My specific contribution to each manuscript is detailed in the subsequent pages in the form of a statement signed by the senior author of each publication.

  • Brain Ageing in the New Millennium
    Brain ageing in the new millennium Julian N. Trollor, Michael J. Valenzuela Objective: This paper examines the current literature pertaining to brain ageing. The objective of this review is to provide an overview of the effects of ageing on brain structure and function and to examine possible mediators of these changes. Methods: A MEDLINE search was conducted for each area of interest. A selective review was undertaken of relevant articles. Results: Although fundamental changes in fluid intellectual abilities occur with age, global cognitive decline is not a hallmark of the ageing process. Decline in fluid intellectual ability is paralleled by regionally specific age related changes apparent from both structural and functional neuroimaging studies. The histopathological mediators of these changes do not appear to be reduction in neuronal number, which, with the exception of selected hippo- campal regions, remain relatively stable across age. At the molecular level, several mech- anisms of age related change have been postulated. Such theoretical models await refinement and may eventually provide a basis for therapy designed to reduce effects of the ageing process. The role of possible protective factors such as ‘brain reserve’, neuro- protective agents and hormonal factors in modifying individual vulnerability to the ageing process has been the focus of a limited number of studies. Conclusion: Our understanding of the functional and structural changes associated with both healthy and pathological ageing is rapidly gaining in sophistication and complexity. An awareness of the fundamental biological substrates underpinning the ageing process will allow improved insights into vulnerability to neuropsychiatric disease associated with advancing age. Key words: brain ageing, cognition, dementia, neuroimaging.

  • The Effects of Normal Aging on Myelin and Nerve Fibers: a Review∗
    Journal of Neurocytology 31, 581–593 (2002) The effects of normal aging on myelin and nerve fibers: A review∗ ALAN PETERS Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology, Boston University School of Medicine, 715, Albany Street, Boston, MA 02118, USA [email protected] Received 7 January 2003; revised 4 March 2003; accepted 5 March 2003 Abstract It was believed that the cause of the cognitive decline exhibited by human and non-human primates during normal aging was a loss of cortical neurons. It is now known that significant numbers of cortical neurons are not lost and other bases for the cognitive decline have been sought. One contributing factor may be changes in nerve fibers. With age some myelin sheaths exhibit degenerative changes, such as the formation of splits containing electron dense cytoplasm, and the formation on myelin balloons. It is suggested that such degenerative changes lead to cognitive decline because they cause changes in conduction velocity, resulting in a disruption of the normal timing in neuronal circuits. Yet as degeneration occurs, other changes, such as the formation of redundant myelin and increasing thickness suggest of sheaths, suggest some myelin formation is continuing during aging. Another indication of this is that oligodendrocytes increase in number with age. In addition to the myelin changes, stereological studies have shown a loss of nerve fibers from the white matter of the cerebral hemispheres of humans, while other studies have shown a loss of nerve fibers from the optic nerves and anterior commissure in monkeys. It is likely that such nerve fiber loss also contributes to cognitive decline, because of the consequent decrease in connections between neurons.
