In the SIRT1 KOs, higher expression of miRNA-134 inhibits CREB production, and ultimately leads to less BDNF in the brain. To nail down this mechanism, the authors showed that the presence of excess miRNA-134 in wild-type mice could abolish LTP and impair memory, and that knockdown of miRNA-134 in SIRT1 KO mice was sufficient to rescue LTP and ...
