RESUMEN
Objective:To study the effect of Xiaoyao Powder on Alzheimer's disease in hippocampal CA 3βregion of rats PP-2A,GSK-3βexpression.Methods:Rats were randomly divided into four groups , including model group, western medicine group,Chi-nese medicine group were treated with intraperitoneal injection of D-gal and A-β1-42 peptide bilateral hippocampal injection mold-ing, physiological group only with equal volume of sterile saline intraperitoneal and hippocampal injection molding .The model was completed, normal group, model group were perfused with saline , western medicine group and Chinese medicine group were treated with oxiracetam solution and Xiaoyao decoction , four groups of intragastric volume was 0.5 ml/100 g, 1 time a day, continuous 28 d. After intragastric administration of isolated rat brain immediately , packet marking in 4℃4%glutaraldehyde solution of glass container , stored at 4℃.Repair piece, cut from the hippocampus, embedded in paraffin, sliced.Dilution of PP-2A for 1∶200, GSK-3βdilution of 1∶150.Images were analyzed by using Image-pro Plus 5 image analysis system, data were conducted by SPSS11.5 statistical analysis software, the comparison between 4 groups by single factor analysis of variance , between the two two groups was compared by LSD-t test, the test level of α=0.05.Results:The expression of PP-2A positive cell number and the positive area , average optical density, integral optical density index , in Xiaoyao Powder orally intervention compared with the model group increased significantly (P<0.01);GSK-3βabove indices were significantly decreased than that in model group after Xiaoyao Powder after intragastric ad -ministration (P<0.01).Conclusion:Xiaoyao Powder can up regulate the expression of PP-2A and down regulate expression of GSK-3β, may be condensed A-β1-42 peptide induced hyperphosphorylation of Tau has certain inhibition .
RESUMEN
Objective To study the learning and memory abilities together with the morphological changes in astrocyte and neuron in the hippocampal CA3 area in mice induced by chronic cadmium exposure. Methods Twenty Kunming mice aged 4-5 months were selected by Y-maze and randomly divided into two groups. The cadmium exposed group treated with cadmium (CdCl2,2 mg/kg) by subcutaneous injection,twice a week for 3 consecutive months,and the normal control group were injected with the equal dose of saline. The learning and memory abilities were detected by Y-maze after 3 months of treatment. The structure of astrocytes and neurons in CA3 area of hippocampus were observed under light microscope,and the quantitatively analysis was performed by cell morphometric technique. Results Compared with the control group,learning and memory capacity determined by Y-maze test in the cadmium exposed group were lower (P
