Abstract
En 中文
We recently demonstrated that abemaciclib treatment modulates cognitive function, Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology, and neuroinflammatory responses in wild-type mice treated with lipopolysaccharide and in 5xFAD mice. In this study, we investigated the influence of abemaciclib treatment on neuroinflammation and cognitive function in 6- or 9-month-old PS19 mice, a P301S mutant tauopathy model. We found that abemaciclib administration suppressed microglial activation in 6-month-old PS19 mice, whereas astrocytic activation was partially attenuated in the entorhinal cortex but not in the hippocampus. In addition, abemaciclib treatment improved short-term and recognition memory and the dendritic spine formation in 6- and 9-month-old PS19 mice. More importantly, abemaciclib administration enhanced short-term and recognition memory in a DYRK1A-dependent manner in 6-month-old PS19 mice. Collectively, our results suggest that abemaciclib treatment alleviates neuroinflammatory responses and cognitive impairment through DYRK1A in 6- or 9-month-old human tau transgenic PS19 mice, highlighting how this multi-kinase-targeting drug could be leveraged for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
