Abstract:
AIM:To explore the preventive effect of resveratrol on spatial memory loss of the mice induced by intralateroventricular injection of calyculin A (CA).METHODS:Kunming mice of 2 months (n=44) were divided into saline control group, CA group, low-dose resveratrol group and high-dose resveratrol group.The mice in control group and CA group were intraperitoneally injected with equal volume of saline for 21 d, while the mice in low-dose resveratrol group and high-dose resveratrol group were intraperitoneally injected with resveratrol at 5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg, respectively.At 22 d, CA (4 μL) was injected into the lateral ventricles in CA group, low-dose resveratrol group and high-dose resveratrol group.Morris water maze test was applied to examine the changes of learning and memory abilities of the mice at 27 d.The Golgi staining was used to observe the morphological changes of dendrites and dendritic spines.The hippocampal tissues were homogenated to detect SOD activity.RESULTS:Low-dose resveratrol significantly decreased the escape latency delay induced by CA.Low-dose resveratrol attenuated the decreases in the number of dendrites and the density of dendritic spines of neurons in hippocampal CA1 region induced by CA.High-dose resveratrol but not low-dose resveratrol attenuated the decreased SOD activity induced by CA.CONCLUSION:Resveratrol at low dose attenuates memory loss in the mice induced by CA though preventing dendrite injury.
