PHYSIOLOGICAL AGING OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM: LITERATURE REVIEW.

Journal Title: European Journal of Biomedical and Pharmaceutical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

The accelerated process of population aging raises the interest of science for a better understanding of the physiological changes that occur in the human body over time. The central nervous system (CNS) is the biological system most affected by this process, since it is responsible for the command of virtually all functions. The main objective of this article is to develop the scientific content of the Central Nervous System and the degenerative process of neurons, and general structures, occurring during the aging process. This research is justified by observations made in the course of expertise in neuroscience, where I presented a constant interest on the physiological aging process of the human body. The research was conducted in the period from July 2012 to January 2013, where data were collected to describe the aging process, specifically the central nervous system. Preferably, the texts were analyzed from 2000, with some references of the 90s. Despite the small found in the literature regarding the physiological aging central nervous system are clear to biotransformations, resulting from the aging process, resulting in frames cognitive impairment, functional motor.
