摘要: Melanocortins exert neuroprotection in a variety of experimental neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Further, in previous research we showed that these endogenous peptides stimulate neurogenesis in an acute neurodegenerative disorder such as ischemic stroke. In the present research, we investigated the potential neurogenic effect of melanocortins in AD using APP Swe transgenic mice (Tg2576). To this purpose, 24 week-old animals were prepared for 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine (BrdU) labeling of …
