[Abstract]
Objective To investigate the intervention effects and potential molecular mechanisms of cannabidiol in an Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse model. Methods The AD mouse model was established by using D-galactose(D-gal)/aluminum chloride (AlCl3), while the control group was not modeled. The modeled mice were randomly divided into 4 groups: model group, donepezil (5 mg∙kg−1) group and low and high dose cannabidiol (100, 200 mg∙kg−1) groups. The mice were ig administered for 21 d, and the control group and model group were ig administered with the same amount of CMC-Na solution. The step-down test and pole test were conducted. The expression levels of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and interleukin 10 (IL-10) in the serum of AD mice and the levels of neurotransmitters acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in the hippocampus were detected by the kit method. The histological changes of the hippocampus were analyzed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The Aβ protein in the hippocampus of mice was quantitatively analyzed by immunofluorescence staining. The changes in the expression of neuroinflammation and neuroapoptosis-related signal proteins in the hippocampus were detected by Western blotting. Results Compared with the model group, the passive avoidance latency in the step-down test and the number of errors in the donepezil group and the cannabidiol groups were significantly prolonged and reduced (P < 0.05, 0.01), respectively, and the descent time in the pole test was significantly shortened (P < 0.05, 0.01). The levels of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 in the serum were significantly decreased (P < 0.01), and the level of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 was significantly increased (P < 0.01). The expression levels of AChE and BChE in the brain tissue of AD mice were significantly decreased (P < 0.01). The pathological changes in the hippocampus were significantly improved, with normal cell structure and tight arrangement, and a small amount of necrosis. The positive rate of Aβ in the hippocampus was significantly decreased (P < 0.01). The protein expression of anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2 was significantly increased (P < 0.01), and the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and Caspase-3 was significantly decreased (P < 0.01). The protein expression of nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), p-p38, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) was significantly decreased (P < 0.05, 0.01), and the protein expression of β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1 (BACE1) was significantly decreased (P < 0.01), while the protein expression of neprilysin (NEP) and insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) was significantly increased (P < 0.01). Conclusion Cannabidiol can improve AD induced by D-gal/AlCl3 in mice by reducing neuroinflammation, inhibiting neuronal apoptosis, and reducing Aβ protein deposition.
