Alantolactone and Isoalantolactone Prevent Amyloid β25–35‐induced Toxicity in Mouse Cortical Neurons and Scopolamine‐induced Cognitive Impairment in Mice
Tóm tắt
Given the evidence for detoxifying/antioxidant enzyme‐inducing activities by alantolactone (AL) and isoalantolactone (IAL), the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of AL and IAL on Aβ25–35‐induced cell death in mouse cortical neuron cells and to determine their effects on scopolamine‐induced amnesia in mice. Our data demonstrated that both compounds effectively attenuated the cytotoxicity of Aβ25–35 (10 μM) in neuronal cells derived from the mouse cerebral cortex. It was also found that the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species, including superoxide anion induced by Aβ25–35, was inhibited. Moreover, the administration of the sesquiterpenes reversed scopolamine‐induced cognitive impairments as assessed by Morris water, Y‐maze, and the passive avoidance tests, and the compounds decreased acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activities in a dose‐dependent manner. Interestingly, AL and IAL did not improve scopolamine‐induced cognitive deficit in
