Effects of tilianin combined with aerobic training on cognitive function in rats with Alzheimer's disease
Objective To explore the effect of tilianin combined with aerobic training on cognitive function of rats with Alzheimer's disease(AD).Methods Rats were divided into 7 groups:blank group,model group,control group,low dose experimental group,medium dose experimental group,high dose experimental group and combination group,12 rats in each group.The rats in blank group were sham operated,and other groups were AD model rats established by bilateral hippocampal injection of amyloid-beta peptide 1-42(A(31-42).One week after modeling,the rats in control group and combination group were trained on the treadmill,and the rats in other groups were fed quietly.The rats in blank group,model group and control group were given 0.5％carboxymethyl cellulose sodium(CMC)2 mL.The rats in low,medium and high dose experimental groups were given intragastric administration of 5,10 and 20 mg·kg-1·d-1tilianin 2 mL.The rats in combined group were given 20 mg·kg-1·d-1 tilianin 2 mL by gavage.The drug was given for 6 weeks.Cognitive function was evaluated by Morris water maze test.The level of Beta-site APP cleaving enzyme protein 1(BACE1)mRNA in hippocampus was measured by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction.The phosphorylation level of nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)p65 in hippocampus was detected by Western blot.Results The escape latencies of blank group,model group,control group,low dose experimental group,medium dose experimental group,high dose experimental group and combination group were(20.16±2.06),(60.45±6.55),(46.52±2.90),(42.80±3.15),(41.19±2.54),(35.66±2.82)and(28.49±1.97)s;the relative expression of BACE1 mRNA were 1.00±0.06,7.88±0.49,6.02±0.38,4.96±0.57,3.01±0.21,1.98±0.17 and 1.48±0.11;the relative phosphorylation levels of NF-κB p65 were 0.11±0.03,1.46±0.11,0.89±0.10,0.71±0.06,0.37±0.05,0.29±0.02 and 0.15±0.01.Compared between model group and blank group,comparison between low,medium,high dose experimental group and model group,comparison between combination group and high dose experimental group all showed statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Tilianin combined with aerobic training can improve the cognitive function of AD rats,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of inflammation mediated by NF-κB signal pathway.
