Abstract
Sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE) is a common and severe clinical feature of sepsis; however, therapeutic approaches are limited because of the unclear pathogenesis. Adiponectin receptor agonist (AdipoRon) is a small-molecule agonist of the adiponectin receptor that exhibits anti-inflammatory and memory-improving effects in various diseases. In the present study, we established lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mice models of SAE and found that Adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1) was significantly decreased in the hippocampus. Administration of AdipoRon improves memory impairment, mitigates synaptic damage, and alleviates neuronal death. Furthermore, AdipoRon reduces the number of microglia. More importantly, AdipoRon promotes the phosphorylation of adenosine 5 '-monophosphate activated protein kinase (pAMPK). In conclusion, AdipoRon is protective against SAE-induced memory decline and brain injury in the SAE models via activating the hippocampal adenosine 5 '-monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK).
期刊介绍:
Behavioural Brain Research is an international, interdisciplinary journal dedicated to the publication of articles in the field of behavioural neuroscience, broadly defined. Contributions from the entire range of disciplines that comprise the neurosciences, behavioural sciences or cognitive sciences are appropriate, as long as the goal is to delineate the neural mechanisms underlying behaviour. Thus, studies may range from neurophysiological, neuroanatomical, neurochemical or neuropharmacological analysis of brain-behaviour relations, including the use of molecular genetic or behavioural genetic approaches, to studies that involve the use of brain imaging techniques, to neuroethological studies. Reports of original research, of major methodological advances, or of novel conceptual approaches are all encouraged. The journal will also consider critical reviews on selected topics.
