naringin ameliorates cognitive deficits in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats
نویسندگان
چکیده
objective(s):previous research demonstrated that diabetes is one of the leading causes of learning and memory deficits. naringin, a bioflavonoid isolated from grapefruits and oranges, has potent protective effects on streptozotocin (stz)-induced diabetic rats. recently, the effects of naringin on learning and memory performances were monitored in many animal models of cognitive impairment. however, to date, no studies have investigated the ameliorative effects of naringin on diabetes-associated cognitive decline (dacd). in this study, we investigated the effects of naringin, using a stz-injected rat model and explored its potential mechanism. materials and methods:diabetic rats were treated with naringin (100 mg/kg/d) for 7 days. the learning and memory function were assessed by morris water maze test. the oxidative stress indicators [superoxide dismutase (sod) and malondialdehyde (mda)] and inflammatory cytokines (tnf-a, il-1β, and il-6) were measured in hippocampus using corresponding commercial kits. the mrna and protein levels of pparγ were evaluated by real time (rt)-pcr and western blot analysis. results:the results showed that supplementation of naringin improved learning and memory performances compared with the stz group. moreover, naringin supplement dramatically increased sod levels, reduced mda levels, and alleviated tnf-α, il-1β, and il-6 compared with the stz group in the hippocampus. the pretreatment with naringin also significantly increased pparγ expression. conclusion: our results showed that naringin may be a promising therapeutic agent for improving cognitive decline in dacd.

متن کاملHuperzine A Ameliorates Cognitive Deficits in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
The present study was designed to probe the effects of Huperzine A (HupA) on diabetes-associated cognitive decline (DACD) using a streptozotocin (STZ)-injected rat model. Diabetic rats were treated with HupA (0.05 and 0.1 mg/kg) for seven weeks. Memory functions were evaluated by the water maze test. Nissl staining was selected for detecting neuronal loss. Protein and mRNA levels of brain-deriv...

Background and Objective: Diabetes mellitus (DM) in long-term is associated with learning and memory decline. Metformin is an anti-diabetic drug with antioxidant and memory-improving effects. Thus, this research study was conducted to assess the effect of metformin on learning and memory in diabetic rats. Materials and Methods: In the present study, male Wistar rats (n=32) were randomly assign...
متن کاملProgesterone ameliorates diabetic nephropathy in streptozotocin-induced diabetic Rats
BACKGROUND Previous studies reported that 17β-estradiol may influence the progression of diabetic renal disease in females. The present study was intended to provide an insight into the specific effects of progesterone, the other female sex hormone, in the diabetic renal complications. METHODS Adult female wistar rats were divided into four groups (n = 6/group): intact control (non-diabetic, ...
متن کاملCarvedilol Ameliorates Early Diabetic Nephropathy in Streptozotocin-Induced Diabetic Rats
Diabetic nephropathy results in end-stage renal disease. On the other hand, carvedilol has been reported to have various pharmacological properties. The aim of this study therefore is to evaluate the possible protective effect of carvedilol on streptozotocin-induced early diabetic nephropathy and various mechanisms underlie this effect in rats. Single i.p. injection of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg)...
