ABSTRACT
Clinical and epidemiological research shows that people with diabetes mellitus frequently experience diabetic cognitive impairment. Schisandrin A (SchA), one of the lignans found in the dried fruit of Schisandra chinensis, has a variety of pharmacological effects on immune system control, apoptosis suppression, anti-oxidation and anti-inflammation. The goal of the current investigation was to clarify the probable neuro-protective effects of SchA against streptozotocin-induced diabetes deficiencies of the spatial learning and memory in rats. The outcomes show that SchA therapy effectively improved impaired glucose tolerance, fasting blood glucose level and serum insulin level in diabetic rats. Additionally, in the Morris water maze test, diabetic rats showed deficits in spatial learning and memory that were ameliorated by SchA treatment. Moreover, giving diabetic rats SchA reduced damage to the hippocampus structure and increased the production of synaptic proteins. Further research revealed that SchA therapy reduced diabetic-induced hippocampus neuron damage and the generation of Aß, as demonstrated by the upregulated phosphorylation levels of insulin signaling pathway connected proteins and by the decreased expression levels of inflammatory-related factors. Collectively, these results suggested that SchA could improve diabetes-related impairments in spatial learning and memory, presumably by reducing inflammatory responses and regulating the insulin signaling system.
