Abstract

Cerebrolysin (Cbl) shows neurotrophic and neuroprotective properties while donepezil (Dnp) is a potent acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor, both drugs are prescribed for Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment. Previous studies have shown that the Dnp and Cbl administered separately, modify dendritic morphology of neurons in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus in senile rodents. Since the deficit of neurotrophic factor activity is implicated in the degeneration of cholinergic neurons of basal forebrain, a combination therapy of Dnp and Cbl has been tested recently in Alzheimer's patients. However, the plastic changes that may underlie this combined treatment have not yet been explored. We present here the effect of the combined administration of Cbl and Dnp on dendritic morphology in brain regions related to learning and memory in aged mice. The Golgi-Cox staining protocol and Sholl analysis were used for studying dendritic changes. Cbl and Dnp were administrated daily for 2 months to 9-months-old mice. Locomotor activity was assessed, as well as the dendritic morphology of neurons in several limbic regions was analyzed. Results showed that Cbl and Dnp induced an increase in locomotor activity without synergistic effect. The Cbl or Dnp treatment modified the dendritic morphology of neurons from prefrontal cortex (PFC), dorsal hippocampus (DH), dentate gyrus (DG), and the shell of nucleus accumbens (NAcc). These changes show an increase in the total dendritic length and spine density, resulting in an improvement of dendritic arborization. Prominently, a synergistic effect of Cbl and Dnp was observed on branching order and total dendritic length of pyramidal neurons from PFC. These results suggest that Dnp and Cbl may induce plastic changes in a manner independent of each other, but could enhance their effect in target cells from PFC.

摘要

脑活素(Cbl)具有神经营养和神经保护作用,而多奈哌齐(Dnp)是一种有效的乙酰胆碱酯酶(AChE)抑制剂,这两种药物都被用于治疗阿尔茨海默病(AD)。先前的研究表明,单独使用 Dnp 和 Cbl 可以改变老年啮齿动物前额叶皮层和海马体神经元的树突形态。由于神经营养因子活性的缺失与基底前脑胆碱能神经元的退化有关,最近已经在阿尔茨海默病患者中测试了 Dnp 和 Cbl 的联合治疗。然而,这种联合治疗可能涉及的可塑性变化尚未得到探索。我们在这里介绍了 Cbl 和 Dnp 联合给药对老年小鼠与学习和记忆相关脑区树突形态的影响。使用高尔基-考克斯染色方案和肖尔分析来研究树突变化。Cbl 和 Dnp 每天给药 2 个月至 9 个月大的小鼠。评估了运动活动,以及几个边缘区域神经元的树突形态。结果表明,Cbl 和 Dnp 诱导运动活动增加,没有协同作用。Cbl 或 Dnp 处理改变了前额叶皮层(PFC)、背侧海马体(DH)、齿状回(DG)和伏隔核壳(NAcc)神经元的树突形态。这些变化表现为总树突长度和棘密度增加,导致树突分支增加。值得注意的是,Cbl 和 Dnp 对 PFC 锥体神经元的分支顺序和总树突长度有协同作用。这些结果表明,Dnp 和 Cbl 可能以相互独立的方式诱导可塑性变化,但可以增强它们在 PFC 靶细胞中的作用。
