Black Soybean Extract Protects Against TMT-Induced Cognitive Defects in Mice

Open access

Abstract

To find a neuroactive compound with a potent inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and in vivo anti-amnesic activity from natural resources, we evaluated anthocyanins and nonanthocyanins from black soybean extract. Nonanthocyanins from black soybean extract were the most potent and dose-dependent AChE inhibitors. Intracellular reactive oxygen species accumulation resulting from H₂O₂ treatment was significantly decreased compared with cells treated with H₂O₂ only. Nonanthocyanins were also neuroprotective against H₂O₂ treated neurotoxicity by 3-[4,5-dimethythiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay. Finally, nonanthocyanins from black soybean in the preadministration group attenuated trimethyltin (TMT)-induced memory injury in both in vivo tests. AChE, prepared from mice brain tissues, was inhibited by nonanthocyanins from black soybean in a dose-dependent manner. Malondialdehyde generation in the brain homogenates of mice treated with nonanthocyanins from black soybean was decreased. We concluded that nonanthocyanins from black soybean had an efficacious in vitro AChE inhibitory activity, and protected against H₂O₂-induced neurotoxicity. In addition, our findings suggest that nonanthocyanins from black soybean may improve the TMT-induced learning and memory deficit because of AChE inhibition of mice brain tissue. Consequently, these results demonstrate that the nonanthocyanins from black soybean could possess a wide range of beneficial activities for neurodegenerative disorders.

  • Black soybean nonanthocyanin extracts (5-20 mg/kg) enhanced learning and memory, reduced oxidative stress, and inhibited AChE activity, with 20 mg/kg showing significant AChE reduction in trimethyltin-treated mice.

    “black soybean nonanthocyanin extracts (5–20 mg/kg) enhanced learning and memory, reduced oxidative stress, and inhibited AChE activity, with the 20 mg/kg dose showing significant AChE reduction in TMT-treated mice [84].”

    From Cholinesterase Inhibitors from Plants and Their Potential in Alzheimer’s Treatment: Systematic Review (2025) · cites this paper as [84]

    The Discussion reports dose-dependent improvement in TMT-induced cognitive impairment at 5–20 mg/kg, and the Results report reduced brain MDA, a marker of oxidative stress. The Abstract and Discussion also report reduced brain AChE activity, but the passages retrieved do not establish that the reduction at 20 mg/kg specifically was statistically significant.

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.
