Proposed working model illustrating the lactate/H3K18la/NFκB axis in senescent microglial, and hippocampus tissues of naturally aged mice and AD mice driving the pathogenesis of brain aging and AD. Increased lactate levels in senescent microglial, and hippocampus tissues of naturally aged mice and AD mice increases H3K18la via histone lysine lactylases CBP/P300 and PCAF. Enhanced H3K18la stimulates IL-6 and IL-8 by enhancing NFκB signaling, which affects brain aging and AD pathology
