Abstract:
Objective The aim of this experiment was to study the improving effects of a ginsenoside hydrolysis product DS-1227 on scopolamine-induced learning and memory impairment in mice.Methods Sixty healthy 5-6-week old male ICR mice (body weight 22 ±2 g) were randomly divided into control group, model group, three DS-1227 groups (25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg), and positive control group (0.3 mg/kg).Fourteen days after oral administration of DS-1227, an open-field test was conduct to determine the mouse locomotor activity.Fifteen days after oral administration of DS-1227, all experimental animals were intraperitoneally administered scopolamine (0.75 mg/kg) and the mice of control group received the same volume of saline.In addition to scopolamine, the mice of positive control group received intraperitoneal injection of physostigmine in a dose of 0.3 mg/kg.Twenty minutes after completion of all the drug administration, object recognition test and Morris water maze test were conducted to evaluate the learning and memory abilities of the mice.Results DS-1227 had no significant effect on locomotor activity of the mice.Scopolamine obviously decreased the discrimination indexes in object recognition test, and prolonged the escape latency of water maze place navigation test.While 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg of DS-1227 increased the discrimination indexes and decreased the escape latency of place navigation in the mice.Conclusion DS-1227 can improve the learning and memory impairment induced by scopolamine in mice.
