摘要
目的:探讨银杏叶提取物(extract of Gingko biloba leaves,EGB)对衰老小鼠学习、记忆障碍的改善作用及其作用机制。方法:将33只雄性小鼠分为3组,每组11只。即模型组:按300mg/kgBW剂量腹腔注射D-半乳糖,1次/d;治疗组:在按上述剂量注射D-半乳糖的同时,按15mg/kgBW剂量腹腔注射EGB,1次/d;对照组:按上述同样剂量注射生理盐水溶液,1次/d。所有实验处理进行6周后停止给药,用Y式迷宫、跳台法检测小鼠的学习记忆能力,同时测定肝、脑组织的单胺氧化酶(monoamine oxidase,MAO)活性。结果治疗组的学习、记忆成绩均显著高于模型组,差异都具有统计学意义(P<0.05或P<0.01)。结论:EGB对于衰老小鼠的学习、记忆障碍有明显的改善作用,在其作用机制中,MAO发挥了重要作用。
Objective: To study the effect and mechanism of extracts of Gingko biloba leaves(EGB)on the improvement of learning and memory disturbance in senile mice. Methods Thirty-three male mice were randomly divided into 3 groups, 11 mice in each group. Mice in model group were injected with D-galactose (300 mg/kg BW) by celiac injection once a day, and the mice in treatment group were injected with D-galactose (300 mg/kg BW)and EGB (15 mg/kg BW) at the same time. The mice in normal group were injected with the same volume of physiological saline solution. After treatment for 6 weeks, the learning and memory ability of mice in each group were determined with Y-maze test and step-down test, and the monoamine oxidase (MAO) activity in liver and brain tissue was tested at the same time. During the test, the celiac injection was stopped. Results: The ability of learning and memory in treatment group was significantly higher than that in model group (P〈0.05 or P〈0.01). Conclusion: EGB could improve learning and memory disturbance in senile mice and MAO probably plays an important role in the metabolic process.
