Pharmacological activation of GPR55 improved cognitive impairment, neuroinflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by lipopolysaccharide in mice
Abstract:BackgroundNeuroinflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis are implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The purpose of the present study was to investigate the neuroprotective effects and possible mechanism of G-protein coupled receptor 55 (GPR55) agonist, O-1602, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cognitive deficits in mice. MethodsICR mice were treated with intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) injection of LPS. Cognitive tests were performed, including the open field, Morris water maze, nove… Show more
