A study from the Department of Metabolism and Aging, The Scripps Research Institute, Florida, USA shows that “MicroRNA-182 regulates amygdala-dependent memory formation.” This study was published in the January 23, 2013 issue of J Neuroscience by Miller CA, Griggs EM and others from the Department of Metabolism and Aging, The Scripps Research Institute, Florida, USA.
On the foundation of this interesting finding, Dr L Boominathan, Director-cum-chief Scientist of GBMD, reports here that: Massage-based therapy for Stress-induced Memory loss: Massage promotes auditory fear memory formation by increassing the expression of Cortactin and Rac1. This study suggests that massage, by decreasing its target gene, it may increase the expression of synapse-enriched regulators of Actin protein such as, Cortactin and Rac1. Given the mechanistic basis, Physicians may encourage patients suffering from “stress-mediated memory loss” to undergo massage therapy.
