Abstract
AIM; To investigate the effect of insulin signaling on the development of Alzheimer disease (AD) and to explore its potential mechanisms. METHODS; The rats were treated with streptozotocin (STZ, 3 mg/kg) intrace-rebroventricularly (ICV) at the 1st day and the 3rd day of the experiment to induce dementia model. Twenty-one days after the injection of STZ at the 1st day, spatial learning and memory of the rats were determined by Morris water maze test. The expression levels of insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE), glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK-3β) , phosphorylated GSK-3β (p-GSK-3β) , tau and phosphorylated tau (p-tau) were measured by Western blotting. The levels of amyloid p-proteins ( Aβ1-40and Aβ1-42) in the brain of the rats were detected by the method of immunohistochemistry. The mRNA levels of insulin, insulin receptor, tau and IDE were measured by real-time RT-PCR. RESULTS: ICV-STZ deteriorated the abilities of spatial learning and memory of the rats and reduced the activity of IDE and the mRNA levels of insulin and insulin receptor. STZ treatment enhanced GSK-3p activity and tau phosphorylation. The levels of Aβ1-40 and Aβ1-42 in cerebral cortex were significantly increased in the rats treated with STZ. CONCLUSION: ICV-STZ results in AD-like behaviors and pathological changes via damaging the brain insulin signaling, indicating that insulin signaling may play important roles in the AD pathogenesis.关键词
