Abstract

Injection into the nucleus basalis of the rat of preaggregated Abeta(1-42) produced a congophylic deposit and microglial and astrocyte activation and infiltration and caused a strong inflammatory reaction characterized by IL-1beta production, increased inducible cyclooxygenase (COX-2), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression. Many phospho-p38MAPK-positive cells were observed around the deposit at 7 days after Abeta injection. Phospho-p38MAPK colocalized with activated microglial cells, but not astrocytes. The inflammatory reaction was accompanied by cholinergic hypofunction. We investigated the protective effect of the selective COX-2 inhibitor rofecoxib in attenuating the inflammatory response and neurodegeneration evoked by Abeta(1-42). Rofecoxib (3 mg/kg/day, 7 days) reduced microglia and astrocyte activation, iNOS induction, and p38MAPK activation to control levels. Cholinergic hypofunction was also significantly attenuated by treatment with rofecoxib. We show here for the first time in vivo the pivotal role played by the p38MAPK microglial signal transduction pathway in the inflammatory response to the Abeta(1-42) deposit.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
