Abstract

Age-related white matter lesions (WML) frequently present vascular problems by decreasing cerebral blood supply, resulting in the condition known as chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH). This study aimed to investigate the effect of hexahydrocurcumin (HHC) on the processes of demyelination and remyelination induced by the model of the Bilateral Common Carotid Artery Occlusion (BCCAO) for 29 days to mimic the CCH condition. The pathological appearance of myelin integrity was significantly altered by CCH, as evidenced by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Luxol Fast Blue (LFB) staining. In addition, CCH activated A1-astrocytes and reactive-microglia by increasing the expression of Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), complement 3 (C3d) and pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, S100a10 expression, a marker of neuroprotective astrocytes, was suppressed, as were regenerative factors including (IGF-1) and Transglutaminase 2 (TGM2). Therefore, the maturation step was obstructed as shown by decreases in the levels of myelin basic protein (MBP) and the proteins related with lipid synthesis. Cognitive function was therefore impaired in the CCH model, as evidenced by the Morris water maze test. By contrast, HHC treatment significantly improved myelin integrity, and inhibited A1-astrocytes and reactive-microglial activity. Consequently, pro-inflammatory cytokines and A1-astrocytes were attenuated, and regenerative factors increased assisting myelin maturation and hence improving cognitive performance. In conclusion, HHC improves cognitive function and also the integrity of white matter in CCH rats by reducing demyelination, and pro-inflammatory cytokine production and promoting the process of remyelination.
