In this study, a rat model of Alzheimer's disease was established after intracerebroventricular injection of β-amyloid peptide (25-35). Subsequently the rats were intraperitoneally treated with osthole (12.5 or 25.0 mg/kg) for 14 successive days. Results showed that osthole treatment significantly improved cognitive impairment and protected hippocampal neurons of AIzheimer's disease rats. Also, osthole treatment alleviated suppressed long-term potentiation in the hippocampus of Alzheimer's disease rats. In these osthole-treated Alzheimer's disease rats, the level of glutamate decreased, but there was no significant change in y-amino-butyric acid. These experimental findings suggest that osthole can improve learning and memory impairment, and increase synaptic plasticity in Alzheimer's disease rats. These effects of osthole may be because of its regulation of central glutamate and y-amino-butyric acid levels.展开更多

However, there is a lackof effective strategies to cope with due to its high requirements of sterilization, soft tissue healing, andosseointegration. In this work, L-arginine (L-Arg) was loaded onto a sulfonated polyetheretherketone (PEEK)surface to solve this issue. Under the infection condition, nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) areproduced through catalyzing L-Arg by inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and thus play a role in bacteriasterilization. Under the tissue repair condition, L-Arg is catalyzed to ornithine by Arginase-1 (Arg-1), whichpromotes the proliferation and collagen secretion of L929 and rBMSCs. Notably, L-Arg loading samples couldpolarize macrophages to M1 and M2 in infection and tissue repair conditions, respectively. The results in vivoshow that the L-Arg loading samples could enhance infected soft tissue sealing and bone regeneration. Insummary, L-Arg loading sulfonated PEEK could polarize macrophage through metabolic reprogramming,providing multi-functions of antibacterial abilities, soft tissue repair, and bone regeneration, which gives a newidea to design percutaneous implantation materials.展开更多
