Trans [epsilon] viniferin decreases amyloid deposits and inflammation in a mouse transgenic Alzheimer model
As Alzheimer's disease (AD) induces several cellular and molecular damages, it could be interesting to use multi-target molecules for therapeutics. We previously published that trans [epsilon]-viniferin induced the disaggregation of A[beta].sub.42 peptide and inhibited the inflammatory response...

Summary: | As Alzheimer's disease (AD) induces several cellular and molecular damages, it could be interesting to use multi-target molecules for therapeutics. We previously published that trans [epsilon]-viniferin induced the disaggregation of A[beta].sub.42 peptide and inhibited the inflammatory response in primary cellular model of AD. Here, effects of this stilbenoid were evaluated in transgenic APPswePS1dE9 mice. We report that trans [epsilon]-viniferin could go through the blood brain barrier, reduces size and density of amyloid deposits and decreases reactivity of astrocytes and microglia, after a weekly intraperitoneal injection at 10 mg/kg from 3 to 6 months of age. |
