Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects and related mechanisms of Tanshinone IIA and Tetramethylpyrazine O/W composite nanoemulsions on Alzheimer's disease (AD) rats. The therapeutic effect of TSN/TMP O/W NEs on AD rats was evaluated by behavioral tests, H&E, Nissl, and Immunohistochemistry staining. ELISA and Western blot were used to analyze the mechanism. The results showed that TSN/TMP O/W NEs could down-regulate the expression of Bax and Caspase-3 proteins, decrease the level of MDA, increase the expression of SOD and GSH-Px, and alleviate cognitive impairment in AD rats. TSN/TMP O/W NEs can inhibit MAPK/ERK/CREB signaling pathway and effectively alleviate cognitive impairment, oxidative stress injury, and neuronal apoptosis in AD rats.
