Magnesium efflux from Drosophila Kenyon cells is critical for normal and diet-enhanced long-term memory

Magnesium efflux from Drosophila Kenyon cells is critical for normal and diet-enhanced long-term memory

Dietary magnesium (Mg2+) supplementation can enhance memory in young and aged rats. Memory-enhancing capacity was largely ascribed to increases in hippocampal synaptic density and elevated expression of the NR2B subunit of the NMDA-type glutamate receptor. Here we show that Mg2+ feeding also enhance...
