摘要:

目的 探讨白肉灵芝水提物(GLAE)改善衰老大鼠认知功能的作用及机制。  方法 将50只健康大鼠分成对照组、模型组、GLAE低剂量组、GLAE中剂量组和GLAE高剂量组,用D-半乳糖构建衰老SD大鼠模型,同时分别给予不同剂量的(0、50、100 和200 mg/kg)GLAE处理,采用新物体认知和跳台实验方法检测大鼠认知功能的改变,甲苯胺蓝、吉姆萨和HE染色进行病理学观察,彗星电泳检测大脑细胞DNA的损伤,ELISA、Western blotting和Real-time PCR法检测大脑组织蛋白激酶A(PKA)/环磷酸腺苷(cAMP)反应元件结合蛋白(CREB)信号通路相关因子表达。  结果 与模型组比较,GLAE干预后,大鼠认知功能衰退及大脑皮层病理变化有显著改善,大脑细胞DNA损伤程度显著降低(P<0.05),大脑组织cAMP、脑源性神经生长因子(BDNF)和神经生长因子(NGF)含量显著增高(P<0.01,P<0.05),PKA、BDNF、NGF和CREB mRNA及PKA、BDNF、NGF和CREB蛋白的表达水平显著上升(P<0.01,P<0.05)。  结论 GLAE可改善衰老大鼠的认知功能,其机制可能与其激活大脑PKA/CREB信号通路,增加神经营养因子含量,抑制大脑细胞DNA损伤有关。

Abstract:

Objective To investigate the effects of the aqueous extracts of ganoderma leucocontextum (GLAE) on cognitive decline of aging rats and possible regulation mechanism.    Methods Fifty rats were divided into five groups, control group, model group, GLAE low-dose group, GLAE middle-dose group and GLAE high-dose group. Aging SD rat models were made by D-galactose, and then treated continuously with different doses (0, 50, 100, 200 mg/kg) of GLAE. The novel object recognition and step down test were performed to detect the changes of rats cognitive function. The brain tissue was stained with toluidine blue, Giemsa and HE staining and observed. The cerebral cell DNA damage was detected by comet assay. Expressions of protein kinase A (PKA)/cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)-response element binding protein (CREB) signaling pathway related factors in brain were respectively detected by ELISA, Western blotting and Real-time PCR.    Results Compared with the model group, administration of GLAE could obviously alleviate rats cognitive decline and pathological change. The levels of cell DNA damage reduced markedly (P<0.05). The contents of cAMP, brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and nerve growth factor (NGF), and also expression levels of mRNA and protein of PKA, BDNF, NGF, CREB in the brain increased significantly in each medicated group (P<0.01, P<0.05).   Conclusion GLAE can improve cognitive function, and its mechanism may be related to activation of brain PKA/CREB signaling pathway, increase in neurotrophic factor content and inhibition of cell DNA damage.
