Assessment of spatial memory and cognitive flexibility in diabetes type 2 in middle-aged Sprague-Dawley rats of both sexes
Abstract
Metabolic changes caused by obesity and the development of diabetes type 2 (T2D) can lead to cognitive impairment. Indeed, it occurred to be a common complication of T2D. Thus, problems with spatial memory are one of the first symptoms of memory loss in patients with T2D. In addition, T2D is associated with changes in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex, which may also underlie executive function impairment. ...
