Abstract
Systemic organ dysfunction is one of the important issues for the patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and their caregivers. Recent evidences suggest that periodontitis is a possible risk factor for progression of AD and lipopolysaccharide derived from Porphyromonas gingivalis (Pg-LPS) which is a major periodontopathic bacteria induces cognitive impairment in mice. However, the precise relationships between the brain exposure of Pg-LPS and systemic organ dysfunction in AD patients are still undetermined. In this study, we investigated whether brain exposure of Pg-LPS induced systemic organ dysfunction in a model of AD mouse. We employed 6 (young) and 13 (middle-aged) months-old 5XFAD mice and 6 months-old littermate (LT) mice, and treated with intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of 2 μg Pg-LPS or saline (vehicle). The animals were monitored cognitive functions (Y maze, nest building, and Morris water maze tests), motor functions (wire hang and rotarod tests), physical condition (symptom score), and blood pressure (BP). Twenty-eight days later, their organs were weighted and the organ damages were examined. Continuous ICV injection of 2 μg/day Pg-LPS increased ionized calcium binding adapter molecule-1 (Iba-1) and cluster ...Continue Reading
