A Reduced Astrocyte Response to β-Amyloid Plaques in the Ageing Brain Associates with Cognitive Impairment
AIMS β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques are a key feature of Alzheimer's disease pathology but correlate poorly with dementia. They are associated with astrocytes which may modulate the effect of Aβ-deposition on the neuropil. This study characterised the astrocyte response to Aβ plaque subtypes, and investigated their association with cognitive impairment. METHODS Aβ plaque subtypes were identified in t...
متن کاملMechanism underlying the effects of doxepin on β-amyloid -induced memory impairment in rats
Objective(s): In previous studies, researchers observed that doxepin could improve cognitive processes and has protective effectson the central nervous system. Thus, this study was designed to analyze the effects of doxepin on β-amyloid (Aβ)-induced memory impairment and neuronal toxicity in ratand to explore the underlying mechanism. Materials and Methods: Rats were treated with Aβ1-42 and dox...
متن کاملEffect of Pentoxifylline on Ischemia- induced Brain Damage and Spatial Memory Impairment in Rat
Objective(s) The brief interruption of cerebral blood flow causes permanent brain damage and behavioral dysfunction. The hippocampus is highly vulnerable to ischemic insults, particularly the CA1 pyramidal cell layer. There is no effective pharmacological strategy for improving brain tissue damage induced by cerebral ischemia. Previous studies reported that pentoxifylline (PTX) has a neuroprot...
متن کاملHypercholesterolemia accelerates amyloid β-induced cognitive deficits.
Hypercholesterolemia is a known risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the present study, we investigated whether diet-induced hypercholesterolemia affects AD-like pathologies such as amyloid β-peptide (Aβ) deposition, tau pathology, inflammation and cognitive impairment, using an Aβ25-35-injected AD-like pathological mouse model. Hyperchole...
متن کاملSoluble amyloid-β oligomers as synaptotoxins leading to cognitive impairment in Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly, and affects millions of people worldwide. As the number of AD cases continues to increase in both developed and developing countries, finding therapies that effectively halt or reverse disease progression constitutes a major research and public health challenge. Since the identification of the amyloid-β peptide (Aβ) as...
