Abstract:
Objective To investigate the mechanism of action of Ginkgo biloba extract on schizophrenia based on oxidative stress-mediated damage to PV interneurons.Methods 54 SPF grade male mice were selected as experimental subjects,divided into blank group,model group,ginkgo biloba extract 50 mg·kg-1,100 mg·kg-1,150 mg·kg-1 group,and risperidone group.Schizophrenic mouse models were established by intraperitoneal injection of MK-801 0.3 mg·kg-1,and behavioral(open field experiment,Y-maze,forced swimming)tests were conducted.Blood samples and brain tissue were collected 24 h after the last dose,Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect changes in PV neurons in the mouse brain;Detect the content of MAD,GSH Px,and SOD in serum using a reagent kit;ELISA method was used to detect the levels of iron and lipid peroxidation in mouse brain tissue;Western blot was used to detect the protein level of GPX4 in the mouse brain.Results Compared with the model group,the Ginkgo biloba leaf extract 150 mg·kg-1 group and the risperidone group significantly reduced the spontaneous alternation rate of the Y maze and significantly shortened the immobility time of forced swimming(P<0.05);PV neuron staining with varying degrees of enhanced fluorescence intensity;The MDA content in the serum of mice was significantly reduced(P<0.01),while the contents of SOD and GSH px were significantly increased(P<0.05);The iron content in the mouse brain was significantly reduced(P<0.05),the ROS content was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the GPX4 content in the mouse brain was significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Ginkgo biloba extract has a significant improvement effect on negative symptoms and cognitive impairment in MK-801 induced schizophrenia mouse models,and can also improve PV neuron damage in the prefrontal cortex of schizophrenia mice.Its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of iron death mediated oxidative stress by Ginkgo biloba extract.
