Scientists have discovered that not all cell types in the brain age in the same way. They found that some cells, such as a small group of hormone-controlling cells, may undergo more age-related changes in genetic activity than others. The NIH-supported study results support the idea that some cells are more sensitive to the aging process and aging brain disorders than others.
