| Objective: In this study,APP / PS1 /Tau triple transgenic dementia(3 × Tg AD)mice with high expression of human tau gene mutation were used as the research objects to observe the effects of stilbene glycoside on phosphorylated Tau protein and the expression of relevant protein phosphokinase,protein phosphatase and phosphokinase regulators in 3 × Tg AD mice.To investigate the effect of stilbene glucoside on abnormal phosphorylation of tau protein and its mechanism in APP / PS1 / Tau transgenic mice,and to provide experimental basis for the development of early intervention drugs for Alzheimer’s Disease(AD).Methods: Forty-five eight-month-old male 3×Tg-AD mice were randomly divided into model group,positive control group,TSG low-dose group,TSG medium-dose group,TSG high-dose group,with 9 mice in each group..In addition,nine eight-month-old male 57 BL / 6J mice were selected as normal control group.The corresponding drugs were given by gavage for consecutive 60 days.The Spatial learning and memory ability was detected by Morris Water Maze;the changes of Nissella body in cerebral cortex and hippocampus were observed by Nissl staining method;the expression and distribution of phosphorylation Tau protein(Ser404 site)and Tau protein in brain tissue were detected by Immunofluorescence(IF)staining method.The expression and distribution of P39 expression in brain tissue was detected by Immunohistochemical(IHC)staining method.The mRNA change of Brain tissue CyclinDependent Kinase 5(CDK5),Extracellular Regulated Protein Kinases(ERK1/2),C-Jun NTerminalkinase(JNK),Protein phosphortase 2B(PP2B),Protein Phosphatase 1(PP1)were detected by real time quantitative Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction(q RT-PCR).The protein change of phosphorylation Tau protein(Thr205 site),CDK5,ERK1/2,JNK,PP2 B,PP1 were detected by Western blotting(WB)method.Results:(1)Effect of TSG on learning and memory ability in 3×Tg-AD mice: compared with

significant difference.(4)The effect of TSG on Tau protein phosphokinase in 3×Tg-AD mice: Western blotting results show that the expression of protein CDK5,ERK1/2,JNK in model group mice brain tissue was significantly higher than normal control group(P<0.01);Compared with model group,the protein expressions of CDK5,ERK1/2 and JNK in brain tissue of mice in positive control group and TSG dose

Immunohistochemical positive neurons of P39 in positive control group and TSG different dose group mice cortex,hippocampus were significantly decreased(P<0.05 or P<0.01);Compared with the positive

can repair the damaged neurons of 3×Tg-AD mice and improve the learning and memory ability of 3×Tg-AD mice.The mechanisms may be associated with downregulating the phosphokinase CDK5,ERK1/2,JNK and their regulatory factor P39,upregulating the phosphatase PP2 B,PP1,and inhibition of Tau protein phosphorylation. |
