Altitude-like hypoxia cognition training to target brain erythropoietin as a novel mechanism of long-lasting enhancement of neuroplasticity and cognitive functions

Cognitive decline is an urgent strategic treatment target to improve the lives of people with neuropsychiatric disorders and reduce associated societal costs but treatments with robust and long-lasting efficacy are essentially lacking. Neuroplasticity is pivotal for cognitive functions and its disruption is involved in cognitive decline. However, the mechanisms underlying long-lasting neuroplasticity are unknown, which impedes the discovery of effective treatments. To address this challenge, I have conducted multidisciplinary research over the past 15 years into the cognitive and neurobiological effects of erythropoietin (EPO), a body-own protein involved in neurodevelopment,…
