摘要

To investigate the preventive treatment effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on cognitive changes and brain damage in senescence-accelerated mouse prone 8 (SAMP8) mice. The 5-month-old male SAMP8 and age-matched homologous normal aging mice (SAMR1) were adopted in this study. EA stimulation at Baihui (GV 20) and Yintang (EX-HN 3) was performed every other day for 12 weeks

4 weeks as a course. Morris water maze test and Nissl-stained with cresyl violet were used for cognitive impairments evaluation and brain morphometric analysis. Amyloid-β (A β) expression in hippocampus and parietal cortex was detected by immunohistochemistry

and apoptosis was observed by TUNEL staining. After 3 courses of EA preventive treatment

the escape latencies of 8-month-old SAMP8 mice in EA group were significantly shortened than those of un-pretreated SAMP8 mice. Compared with SAMR1 mice

extensive neuronal changes were visualized in the CA1 area of hippocampus in SAMP8 mice

while these pathological changes and attenuate cell loss in hippocampal CA1 area of SAMP8 mice markedly reduced after EA preventive treatment. Furthermore

A β expression in hippocampus and parietal cortex of SAMP8 mice decreased significantly after EA treatment

and neuronal apoptosis decreased as well. EA preventive treatment at GV 20 and EX-HN 3 might improve cognitive deficits and neuropathological changes in SAMP8 mice

which might be

at least in part

due to the effects of reducing brain neuronal damage

decreasing neuronal apoptosis and inhibiting A β-containing aggregates.
