摘要
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by memory loss, cognitive impairment, and behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia. The limited efficacy of drugs for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases reflects their complex etiology and pathogenesis. A novel in vitro model may help to bridge the gap between existing preclinical animal models and human clinical trials, thus identifying promising therapeutic targets that can be explored in upcoming clinical trials. By assisting in the identification of the mechanism of action and potential dangers, in vitro testing can also shorten the time and expense of translation. Aim: As a result of these factors, our objective is to develop a powerful and informative cellular model of AD within a short period of time. Through triggering the MAPK and NF-kappa beta signaling pathways with the aid of small chemical compounds (PAF C-16 and BetA), respectively, in mouse microglial (SIM-A9) and neuroblast Neuro-2a (N2a) cell lines. Results: PAF C-16, initiated an activation effect at a concentration of 3.12 nM to 25 nM in the SIM-A9 and N2a cell lines after 72 h. BetA, activated the NF-kappa beta pathway with a concentration of 12.5 nM to 25 nM in the SIM-A9 and N2a cell lines after 72 h. The combination of the activator chemicals provided suitable activation for MEK1/2-ERK and NF-kappa beta in more than three subcultures. Activators significantly initiate APP and MAPT gene expression, as well as the expression of proteins APP, beta. Amyloid, tau, and p-tau. The activation of the targeted pathways leads to significant morphological changes. Conclusion: We can infer that the MEK1/2-ERK and NF-kappa beta pathways, respectively, are directly activated by the PAF C-16 and BetA chemicals. The activation of MEK1/2-ERK pathway results in the activation of the APP gene, which in turn activates the beta. Amyloid protein, which in turn results in plaque. Furthermore, NF-kappa beta activation results in the activation of the MAPT gene, which leads to Tau and p-Tau protein activation, which ultimately results in tangles. This can be put into practice in just three days, with a high level of activity and stability that is passed down to the next three generations (subculture), with significant morphological changes. In microglial and neuroblast cell lines, we were successful in creating a novel AD-cell model.
