neurotoxicity in primary cortical neurons

Introduction
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD):
Dementia is a brain disorder that seriously affects a person’s
memory, thinking, and reasoning skills.
About 5 percent of men and women ages 65 to 74 have
Alzheimer’s disease, and nearly half of those age 85 and older
may have the disease.

The therapy of Alzheimer’s disease
• 乙醯膽鹼抑制劑( Cholinesterase inhibitors):
目前改善阿茲海默氏症患者知能藥物的主流。目前有 donepezil (愛憶欣 ) 及 Exelon(憶思能 ) 與 Riminyl三種。
• 乙醯膽鹼的前身 (Acetylcholine precursors):有幾個小規模的 lecithin及 choline的臨床試驗,顯示無效。
• 尼古丁接受體促效劑( Nicotinic cholinergic receptor
agonists):
兩個臨床試驗,其中一個發現尼古丁對學習能力有幫助,但記憶則沒有改善。• Muscarinic cholinergic agonists:
因為乙醯膽鹼的腸胃及暈厥的副作用,所以臨床試驗沒再繼續。

黃耆總皂苷( Astragalus membranaceus)
• 多年生草本,豆科植物莢膜黃耆或蒙古黃耆之乾燥根
• 產於中國華北、東北、內蒙古和西北,主產於山西、黑龍
江、遼寧、河北等省
• 有益氣固表、斂汗固脫、托瘡生肌、利水消腫之功效
• 用于治療氣虛乏力,中氣下陷,表虛自汗,血虛萎黃,內
熱消渴,慢性腎炎,蛋白尿,糖尿病等。炙黃耆益氣補中,
生用固表托瘡。
有效成分
•以現代科學分析技術已知具有:
1.多醣類( astragalan,黃耆多醣)
2.三萜皂苷類( astragalosides,黃耆總皂苷)
3.黃酮類、胺基酸、酚酸、蔗糖、微量元素等成分

Pharmacological activities of Astragalus
• Astragaloside IV can protect the myocardial cells of rats from damage caused by lack of oxygen, and increase the content and activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the cytoplasm.
• Astragaloside IV can improve fructopyranose-induced metabolic syndrome in rats by increasing levels of nitric metabolite and cyclic guanosine monophosphate, which manifested as reduction in blood pressure and improvement in insulin resistance.
• Astragaloside IV acted on HepG2 cells transfected with hepatitis-B virus, and secretion of hepatitis-B surface antigen, hepatitis-Be antigen as well as serum HBV DNA levels were reduced.
