Effect of liver X receptor agonist TO901317 on astrocyte in hippocampal dentate gyrus in adult mice
on the number of astrocytes in hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) and on radial processes in the dentate gyrus subgranular zone (DG-SGZ) in adult mice. Methods TO901317 (40 mg/kg) was intragastrically administrated to the healthy female C57B/L6 mice for 7
d. The number of GFAP positive cells and radial-like fibers in the hippocampus was detected by immunohistochemistry. The expression of LXRα
LXRβ
Klf-9
ABCA1
ABCG1 and apoE was detected by RT-PCR. The size and weight of the liver were also observed. Results After 1 week’s TO901317 treatment
the number of GFAP positive cells in the DG was decreased markedly (
P
<
0.05)
while the GFAP positive radial-like fiber in the SGZ was increased significantly (
P
<
0.01). No change was found in the expression of LXRα
while that of LXRβ was decreased (
P
<
0.05). The expression of Klf-9
ABCA1
ABCG1 and apoE was increased significantly after TO901317 administration (
P
<
0.05). Significant increases of the liver size and weight were observed in TO901317 group when compared with those in DMSO group (
P
<
0.01). Conclusion Through LXRβ receptor
TO901317 modulates the expression of Klf-9
ABCA1
ABCG1 and apoE
and improves the outgrowth of radial-like process of astrocytes in the DG-AGZ.
