This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic potential and underlying mechanisms of BZP in a mouse model of vascular dementia induced by chronic cerebral hypoperfusion. BZP was administered for 28 days following right unilateral common carotid artery occlusion (rUCCAO) in mice. BZP significantly alleviated cognitive impairment, behavioural deficits, and fine motor function. Mechanistically, BZP inhibited 12/15-LOX, cPLA<sub>2</sub>, p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK ratio, tumour necrosis factor-α, interlukin-1β, Aβ<sub>1-42</sub> deposition, and Tau hyperphosphorylation in the brain and serum of rUCCAO mice. Similar protective effects were observed in both 12/15-LOX-overexpressed and H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>-induced HT22 cell models. These findings suggest that BZP exerts its neuroprotective effects by targeting the 12/15-LOX/cPLA<sub>2</sub>/p38 MAPK pathway, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for mitigating the progression of cognitive impairment.</p>","PeriodicalId":15769,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry","volume":"40 1","pages":"2547259"},"PeriodicalIF":5.4,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12372482/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144956637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
