ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To observe the effect of Naoling decoction on the learning and memory behaviors and the expression of microglia and IL-6 in hippocampal CA3 region of rats with Alzheimer's disease (AD), and to elucidate the potential mechanism.@*METHODS@#Thirty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups a normal group, a sham-operation group, an AD group, a Naoling decoction group and a Naofukang group. The spatial learning and memory behaviors of the rats were investigated by water maze and Y-maze. The Alzheimer's disease model was established by injecting Aβ1-42 into the hippocamal of the rats. Expression of OX-42 (one of the microglia specific markers) and IL-6 in the CA3 region of hippocamal was measured by immunohistochemical stain.@*RESULTS@#Morris water maze experiment showed that the escape latency of hidden platform in the AD group was significantly delayed (P<0.05) and the average times of passing was decreased (P<0.05). Y-maze test showed that the times needed to the learn how to evade the electrical stimulation in the AD group was most than in other groups (P<0.05). Compared with the AD group, the Morris water maze test and Y-maze test of the Naoling decoction group were significantly different (P<0.05). The expression of OX-42 and IL-6 in the CA3 region of hippocamal in the Naoling decoction group was decreased (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Naoling decoction can improve learning and memory, and weaken the expression of OX-42 and IL-6 in hippocampal CA3 of AD rats, which may partly be the therapeutic mechanism of Naoling decoction for AD.
