Curcumin improves the learning and memory deficits in rats induced by the gp120 V3 loop. The present study cultured rat hippocampal neurons with 1 nM gp120 V3 loop and 1 μM curcumin for 24 hours. The results showed that curcumin inhibited the gp120 V3 loop-induced mitochondrial membrane potential decrease, reduced the mRNA expression of the pro-apoptotic gene caspase-3, and attenuated hippocampal neuronal injury.
姜黄素改善 gp120 V3 环诱导的大鼠学习记忆障碍。本研究用 1 nM gp120 V3 环和 1 μM 姜黄素培养大鼠海马神经元 24 小时。结果表明,姜黄素抑制 gp120 V3 环诱导的线粒体膜电位下降,降低促凋亡基因 caspase-3 的 mRNA 表达,减轻海马神经元损伤。
