Abstract:
:The aim of this study was to explore the therapeutic effect and underling mechanism of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (DOPS) on two well-established animal models of learning and memory disabilities. Model of estrogen deficiency caused learning and memory disability can be induced by ovariectomy in mice, and mice were injected subcutaneously with d-galactose, which can also cause cognitive decline. H&E staining and Nissl staining were employed to confirm the protective effect of DOPS on hippocampal neuron. Morris water maze test, biochemical analysis, immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence assay were used to study the effect and underlying mechanism of DOPS on two different learning and memory impairment models. Administration of DOPS significantly improved learning and memory disability in both models. Further studies showed that DOPS could attenuate oxidative stress and reduce neuro-inflammation via up-regulating expressions of Nrf2/HO-1 pathway and inhibiting activation of astrocytes and microglia in ovariectomy- and d-galactose-induced cognitive decline. These findings suggest that DOPS have an appreciable therapeutic effect on learning and memory disabilities and its mechanism may be related to activate Nrf2/HO-1 pathway to reduce oxidative stress and neuro-inflammation.
