Targeting Neuroinflammation by Vascular Versus Metabolic Acting Drugs, in a Preventive or Therapeutic Approach, Using an Experimental Model of Sporadic Alzheimer’s Disease [sad]. - 09/06/15
Résumé |
Introduction |
Neuroinflammation, is a final consequence of neuro-vasculo-metabolic uncoupling, common to all major neurodegenerative disorders, as sAD. One cause is brain insulin resistance (BIR).
Objectives |
Comparepreventive or therapeutic potentiality of vascular versus metabolic actingdrugs
Aims |
Their ability to suppress CSF neuroinflammatory markers, in STZ-induced, rat model of sAD.
Methods |
63 rats were injected i.c.v. STZ (3mg/kg/10ul) to develop BIR that induces sAD, then grouped into: 21 as untreated-sampled on (7th/28th/90th) days / 28 as preventive-sampled after receiving oral dailysildenafil (10mg/kg), telmisartan (10mg/kg), rusovastatin (10mg/kg), orpioglitazone (10mg/kg) from 1st till 28th days / 14 astreated-sampled after receiving telmisartan or pioglitazone from 28thtill 90th days. Sampled CSF from cisterna magna was analyzed for IL-6,TNF-a, TGF-b, MDA, and p-tau.
Results |
In untreated group; inflammatory markerswere detected on 7th while p-tau on 28th day. Theirsignificant elevation was more on 28th and 90th days respectively. By prevention; p-tau was not detected withany drug, while inflammatory markers were significantly reduced by telmisartanand pioglitazone > rusovastatin, tipping % reduction in favor of metabolicacting drugs. By treatment, % reduction in p-tau and neuroinflammation was moresignificant by telmisartan > pioglitazone, when compared to untreated group.
Conclusions |
Neuroinflammation was bettercontrolled in prevention by the collectively used metabolic than vascularacting drugs but the reverse was detected by those selected for treatment; denoting thatfinal outcomes are rather delineated by the drug’s inherent ability to targetneuroinflammation, irrespective of its primary vascular versus metabolic action.
