ABSTRACT
Accumulation of amyloid beta (Aß) is a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In this study, we evaluated the protective effect of membrane-free stem cell extract (MFSCE), which is a component of adipose-tissue-derived stem cells, on cognitive impairment in Aß25-35-injected AD mice. The ICR mice were i.c.v. injected with Aß25-35 and then treated with MFSCE for 14 days (i.p.). The Aß25-35-injected mice showed deficits in spatial and object perception abilities, whereas treatment with MFSCE inhibited Aß25-35-induced learning and memory impairment in the T-maze, novel object recognition, and Morris water maze tests. Moreover, Aß25-35-induced lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide overproduction were attenuated by treatment with MFSCE. These antioxidant effects of MFSCE were related to the inhibition of the apoptotic signaling pathway. In particular, the combination treatment of MFSCE and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) showed greater suppression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 protein expression compared to the MFSCE- or PLP-only treatment. Furthermore, the MFSCE and PLP combination significantly downregulated the amyloidogenic-pathway-related protein expressions, such as amyloid precursor protein, presenilin 1, and presenilin 2. Therefore, the MFSCE and PLP combination may synergistically prevent Aß25-35-induced neuronal apoptosis and amyloidogenesis, which contributes to cognitive improvement and has potential therapeutic implications for AD patients.
