Effect of Tiaoxin Recipe on Memory Learning and Synaptic Plasticity in APP/PS1 Double Transgenic Alzheimer's Disease Mice based on αCaMKⅡ-CREB-BDNF Signal Pathway by Xiaowen WANG, Hong QIAN, Chunjuan SHEN, Yanjun LI, Haixin YUAN, Jian WANG

“…During the 50-60 min stable period, compared with the model group, the slope of fEPSP in the LTP induced by Tiaoxin recipe group was significantly higher than that in the model group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).②RT-qPCR results: compared with the normal group, the expressions of αCaMKⅡ, CREB, BDNF and PSD-95mRNA in the hippocampus of the model group were significantly lower, and the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). Compared with the model group, the expressions of αCaMKⅡ, CREB, BDNF and PSD-95mRNA in the hippocampus of the Tiaoxin recipe group were significantly higher, and the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).③Western blot assay results: Compared with the normal group, the expressions of p-αCaMKⅡ, p-CREB, BDNF and PSD-95 protein in the hippocampus of the model group were significantly lower, and the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). compared with the model group, the expressions of p-αCaMKⅡ, p-CREB, BDNF and PSD-95 prote in in the hippocampus of mice in Tiaoxin recipe group were significantly increased, and the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).Conclusion:Tiaoxin recipe can improve the LTP of hippocampal CA1 region of APP/PS1 double transgenic AD mice, increase the expression of PSD-95mRNA and protein, improve the memory learning function and synaptic plasticity of APP/PS1 double transgenic AD mice, and its mechanism may be related to its up-regulation of hippocampal αCaMKⅡ-CREB-BDNF signal pathway.…”

Correlation of the Changes of Gray Matter Volume with Aβ Deposition and Learning and Memory Abilities in APP/PS1 Mice at Different Periods by Yuhao ZHANG, Hao JIN, Xiufeng ZHANG, Shengxiang LIANG, Weilin LIU, Jing TAO, Lidian CHEN

“…The brain paraffin sections of two groups of mice of different months were separated and prepared, and the Aβ deposition in bilateral entorhinal cortex and hippocampus of the two groups was detected by Thioflavine-s fluorescence staining, and the correlation between the changes of gray matter volume and memory learning ability and Aβ deposition in the corresponding brain area of the two groups was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:①The results of Morris water maze test: compared with the WT group, there was no significant difference in the behavioral results of the 2-month-old mice in the APP/PS1 group, and the difference was not statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&gt;0.05); the escape latency of mice of the APP/PS1 group at the 6 and 12 month-old increased significantly, the number of crossing platforms of the APP/PS1 group at the 6 and 12 month-old decreased significantly, and the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).②The results of MRI T2WI scan: compared with the WT group, there was no significant change in the gray matter volume of the APP/PS1 group at 2-month-old, and the difference was not statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&gt;0.05); the volume of the entorhinal cortex of the APP/PS1 group at 6-month-old decreased significantly, and the volume of the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus of the APP/PS1 group at 12-month-old mice decreased significantly, the difference was statistically significant (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05).③The results of Th-s fluorescence staining test: Aβ deposition was not detected in WT group and APP/PS1 group at 2-month-old; compared with the WT group, a small amount of Aβ deposition could be detected in the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus of the APP/PS1 group at 6-month-old, while a large number of dense Aβ plaques can be detected in the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus of the APP/PS1 group at 12-month-old.④Correlation analysis results: APP/PS1 group mice's entorhinal cortex and hippocampus volume changes were significantly negatively correlated with escape latency (<italic>r</italic>=-0.729, <italic>P</italic>&lt;0.001; <italic>r</italic>=-0.643, <italic>P</italic>&lt;0.001); the volume changes of the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus in the APP/PS1 group showed a positive correlation with the number of crossing platforms (<italic>r</italic>=0.705, <italic>P</italic>&lt;0.001; <italic>r</italic>=0.719, <italic>P</italic>&lt;0.001); the volume changes of the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus in the APP/PS1 group were significantly negatively correlated with Aβ deposition (<italic>r</italic>=-0.865, <italic>P</italic>&lt;0.001; <italic>r</italic>=-0.885, <italic>P</italic>&lt;0.001).Conclusion:APP/PS1 transgenic mice may have learning and memory dysfunction at 6-month-old, and it gradually worsen with time; the learning and memory dysfunction may be related to the atrophy of the entorhinal cortex and hippocampus in the brain of mice, and excessive Aβ deposition may be the one of the factors that cause the brain gray matter volume to shrink.…”
