BACKGROUND: Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) is regarded as a high-risk factor for cognitive decline in vascular dementia (VaD). We have previously shown that diabetes mellitus (DM) synergistically promotes CCH-induced cognitive dysfunction via exacerbating neuroinflammation. Furthermore, curcumin has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities. However, the effects of curcumin on CCH-induced cognitive impairments in DM have remained unknown.
METHODS: Rats were fed with a high-fat diet (HFD) and injected with low-dose streptozotocin (STZ), followed by bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO), to model DM and CCH in vivo. After BCCAO, curcumin (50 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally every two days for eight weeks to evaluate its therapeutic effects. Additionally, mouse BV2 microglial cells were exposed to hypoxia and high glucose to model CCH and DM pathologies in vitro.
RESULTS: Curcumin treatment significantly improved DM/CCH-induced cognitive deficits and attenuated neuronal cell death. Molecular analysis revealed that curcumin exerted protective effects via suppressing neuroinflammation induced by microglial activation, regulating the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2)/toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway, alleviating apoptosis, and reducing nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)-dependent pyroptosis.
CONCLUSIONS: Taken together, our findings suggest that curcumin represents a promising therapy for DM/CCH-induced cognitive impairments.
