Objective:We aimed to investigate the effects of osthole on learning and memory impairment of AD mice induced by injection of Aβ25-35 and the content of Ca2+、GLU、Ab1-42 in the brain tissue and peripheral blood.Methods:Mice were randomly assigned to sham operation,Aβ25-35,Aβ25-35+Ost-L,Aβ25-35+Ost-M,and Aβ25-35+Ost-H group.Water maze test was performed to assessing spatial learning ability of mice.It is determined that the MDA level and the activity of SOD in the brain tissue of mice in each grou...更多
Objective:We aimed to investigate the effects of osthole on learning and memory impairment of AD mice induced by injection of Aβ25-35 and the content of Ca2+、GLU、Ab1-42 in the brain tissue and peripheral blood.Methods:Mice were randomly assigned to sham operation,Aβ25-35,Aβ25-35+Ost-L,Aβ25-35+Ost-M,and Aβ25-35+Ost-H group.Water maze test was performed to assessing spatial learning ability of mice.It is determined that the MDA level and the activity of SOD in the brain tissue of mice in each group by colorimetry.The GLU kit and Ca2+kit were used to detect the GLU,Ca2+in tissue and serum.Elisa was used to detect the expression of Aβ1-42 in the hippocampus and serum of mice.HE staining and silver staining were used to detect neuron apoptosis and pathological changes in brain slices.Results:①Effects of osthole on learning and memory:With the increase of training day,the escape latencies continuously reduced in each experimental group,the escape latencies of the model group was longer on the 1st,2nd,3rd,and 5th days than the normal group,the difference was statistically significant(day 3,4:P<0.05,day 5:P<0.01);compared with the model group,the escaping latency on the fifth day of the OST low-medium high-dose group was significantly shortened,which was statistically significant(P<0.05).②Effects on oxidative stresspathway:the SOD activity of AD mice in the hippocampus model group was lower than that in the normal group,which was statistically significant(P<0.05);The SOD activity in the OST group was higher than that in the model group,which was statistically significant(P<0.05).The MDA content in the model group was significantly higher than that in the normal group(P<0.05).The MDA content in the OST high-dose group was lower than that in the model group,which was statistically significant(P<0.05).③Effects of GLU levels on neurotransmitters:the results of the detection of GLU in cortical area and GLU in serum of AD mice in OST dose groups showed that serum GLU levels in the model group were significantly收起
