Abstract:
Objective To study that Geranylgeranylacetone(GA) induce the expression of heat shock protein 70 expression in hippocampus of Alzheimer's model rats and its effect on learning and memory ability in the model rats induced by Aβ1-42 injection into hippocampus.Method 72 health SD rats were randomly divided into GGA group,model group was injected with Aβ1-42 and control group was injected with normal saline into hippocampus.Y maze test was used to detect the learning and memory ability of the rats at the 7th,14th and 21st day after injection into hippocampus separately.HSP70 expression in hippocampus tissues were detected by RT-PCR and western-blot as soon as Y maze test has been finished.Result The learning and memory ability of the rats in model group decreased significantly at the 14th and 21st day after injection than those in control group(P<0.05),but not too much changed in GGA group(P<0.05).HSP70 expres- sions in hippocampus tissues in model group decreased gradually after injection Aβ1-42,but increased in GGA group at the 7th,14th and 21st day after injection.Conclusion GGA can induce the expression of HSP70 in hippocarnpus of Alzheimer's model rats and meliorate the neuron impairment as well as the learning and memory ability of the rats.
