40、Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: ConclusionCSome mice can easily remember where they hide food, but not those genetically engineered to develop Alzheimers disease. Like humans they become forgetful. By the time these mice are seven months old they are unable to remember, for example, which part of a maz
41、e they have explored before. Two months later, their brains are filled with protein “plaques” that also characterise the latter stage of the disease in humans. Now researchers have managed to restore memories to mice with Alzheimers. This helps provide more evidence about how memories are lost durin
42、g the early stages of the disease and may point to how, some time in the future, those memories might be brought back. Susumu Tonegawa and his colleagues at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology used a technique known as optogenetics, which activates neurons (神经元) by shining light on them. As th
43、ey report in Nature, the researchers prepared seven-month-old Alzheimers mice by injecting a harmless virus into the rodents dentate gyrus (齿状回区), a part of the hippocampus that helps to store fearful memories. The virus contains a gene for channelrhodopsin-2, a light-sensitive protein which forms p
44、ores (毛孔) in the cell membranes of neurons infected with the virus. These pores are closed in the dark, but open in response to blue light, flooding neurons with positively charged ions. The resulting pulse of current makes the neurons fire. Using a standard lab test of memory, a mouse was placed in
45、 a box and given a small electrical shock to its feet. Normal mice remember this and freeze in fear if put back in the box the following day, but mice with Alzheimers jump about as usual. Yet when the researchers stimulated (刺激) the dentate gyrus of these mice with blue light, they also froze, suggesting that they were now able to recall the original shock. Holding on to a fearful memory in the long term, however, requires the brain to strengthen the nerve connections that link memory of the box to experience of the shock. Thi
