ATP11B-YAP Pathway Improved Memory and Ferroptosis in Aged Mice

MHD featured image for ATP11B-YAP signaling, ferroptosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and age-related cognitive decline in aged mice.

A 2026 mouse and cell study found that ATP11B loss pushed aged brains toward hippocampal iron accumulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, neuronal ferroptosis, and worse memory behavior than wild-type comparison mice; ATP11B overexpression then improved multiple learning and memory tests in 18-month-old mice. Research Highlights Memory signal: ATP11B-deficient mice performed worse than wild-type mice on Morris water …
