Abstract

Dendrobium nobile is a well-known traditional Chinese herbal medicine used for age-related diseases. Dendrobium nobile Lindl. alkaloid (DNLA) is the active ingredient to improve learning and memory deficits in laboratory animals. The aim of the present study was to examine the anti-aging effects of long-term administration of DNLA and metformin during the aging process in senescence-accelerated mouse-prone 8 (SAMP8) mice. SAMP8 mice were orally given DNLA (20 and 40 mg/kg) or metformin (80 mg/kg) starting at 6 months of age until 12 months of age. Age-matched SAMR1 mice were used as controls. DNLA and metformin treatments ameliorated behavioral deficits of 12-month-old SAMP8 mice, as determined by Rotarod, Y-maze, and Open-field tests. DNLA and metformin treatments prevented brain atrophy and improved morphological changes in the hippocampus and cortex, as evidenced by Nissl and H&E staining for neuron damage and loss, and by SA-β-gal staining for aging cells. DNLA and metformin treatments decreased amyloid-β1-42, AβPP, PS1, and BACE1, while increasing IDE and neprilysin for Aβ clearance. Furthermore, DNLA and metformin enhanced autophagy activity by increasing LC3-II, Beclin1, and Klotho, and by decreasing p62 in the hippocamp...Continue Reading
