Abstract
At early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD), soluble amyloid beta (Aβ) accumulates in brain while microglia are in resting state. Microglia can recognize Aβ long after formation of plaques and release neurotoxic mediators. We examined impact of early minor activation of microglia by Toll-like receptors (TLRs) 2 and 4 agonists on Alzheimer's disease-related disturbed synaptic function and spatial memory in rats. Microglial BV-2 cells were treated by 0.1, 1, and 10 μg/mL of the TLRs ligands lipopolysaccharide, monophosphoryl lipid A (MPL), and Pam3Cys for 24 hours. Culture medium was then changed with media containing 1-μM Aβ. Tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-α and CCL3 levels were measured in the supernatant, 24 hours thereafter. One μg of TLRs ligands which was able to release low level of TNF-α and CCL3, was administered intracerebroventricularly (i.c.v) to adult male rats every 3 days for 24 days. At the half of the treatment period, Aβ1-42 was infused i.c.v (0.075 μg/hour) for 2 weeks. Finally, the following factors were measured: memory performance by Morris water maze, postsynaptic potentials of dentate gyrus following perforant pathway stimulation, hippocampal inflammatory cytokines interleukin 1 (IL-1)β and TNF-α, anti-infla...Continue Reading
