Effect of Huangjingwan on Antioxidant Functions and Aβ1-42 and APP Protein Expressions in Brain of Alzheimer' s Disease Rats
To observe the effect of Huangjingwan (HW) on antioxidant functions and
β
-amyloid 1-42 (A
β
1-42
) and amyloid precursor protein (APP) expressions in the brain of Alzheimer' s disease (AD) rats.
Method:
2
SD rats were randomly divided into normal control group
sham model control group
AD model group
and low
medium
high-dose (equivalent raw drug dose 1
3
9 g·kg
-1
·d
-1
) HW groups.The AD models were established through intraperitoneal injection with 1.25%
D
-galactose (120 mg·kg
-1
·d
-1
6 consecutive weeks) and then one-time right ventricular injection with A
β
1-42
(10 μg). Two weeks after modeling
the rats in each HW group received corresponding drugs through intragastric administration
once a day
while the rats in sham model control group
AD model group were given normal saline 1 mL through intragastric administration
once a day.Gastric perfusion lasted for 8 weeks.At the end of the experiment
learning and memory abilities of the rats were assessed by Platform Jumping Test.The changes of physical endurance in rats were tested by 10% weight swimming under load.The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD)
glutathione reductase (GR)
glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) antioxidant enzymes and the contents of glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in rat brain tissue were detected by colorimetry.The changes of interleukin-1
β
(IL-1
β
)
tumor necrosis factor-
α
(TNF-
α
)
A
β
1-42
and APP protein in rat brain tissues were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Western blot analysis was used to measure the expression of APP protein in rat brain.
Result:
2
Compared with the normal control group
rats in AD model group showed an obvious dementia state
that is more lying and less movement
longer learning response time
significant increase in the number of learning and memory errors
significant attenuation in physical fitness
significant decrease in the activities of antioxidant enzymes (SOD
GR
GSH-Px) and anti-inflammatory factors GSH in brain
significant rise in the levels of inflammatory factors MDA
IL-1
β
and TNF-
α
and the content of A
β
1-42
protein
and significant reduction in the content of APP protein in brain (
P
<
0.01). Low
medium and high-dose HW could ameliorate dementia symptoms in AD rats
improve the achievement of learning and memory
antagonize body weakness and increase physical fitness
promote SOD
GR
GSH-Px activities and anti-inflammatory factor GSH level in the brain
reduce the levels of MDA
IL-1
β
and TNF-
α
in the brain
decrease the level of A
β
1-42
and increase the level of APP protein in the brains of AD rats compared with the AD model group (
P
<
0.05
P
<
0.01)
besides
within the dose range of 1-9 g·kg
-1
·d
-1
HW has a more obvious effect with the increase of dose.
Conclusion:
2
HW has the effects in preventing and treating AD
which is related to the HW' s mechanisms in enhancing the function of antioxidant system in brain
reducing neuroinflammatory reaction and deposition of A
β
1-42
induced by oxidative stress
and maintaining the expression level of APP protein.
