摘要: beta-Amyloid peptide (Abeta) is one of the main protein components senile plaques contributing to Alzheimer's disease and it can induce neuronal apoptosis. In this study, was found that icariin, a flavonoid extracted from Chinese Herba-Epimedii, inhibited Abeta42-induced neurotoxicity in dose-dependent manner. The peak dose icariin 160 microg/ml. addition, mRNA expressions cocaine amphetamine-regulated transcript (CART) were increased Abeta42-treated neurons presence 80 microg/ml icariin. Moreover, CART-RNA interference able reverse neuroprotection on Abeta42. Furthermore, expression CART be suppressed by extracellular signal-regulated kinase inhibitor instead p38/JNK inhibitors, suggesting may developed into therapeutic agents for other neurodegenerative diseases.
