  • Title: Hyperhomocysteinemia Induces Rat Memory Impairment Via Injuring Hippocampal CA3 Neurons and Downregulating cAMP Response Element-Binding Protein (CREB) Phosphorylation.
    Author: Liu C, Zhao H, Ji ZH, Yu XY.
    Journal: Neurochem Res; 2022 Mar; 47(3):762-767. PubMed ID: 34787820.
    Abstract:
    Accumulated evidence demonstrated that an elevated plasma homocysteine level, hyperhomocysteinemia, induced cognitive impairment in animals, elderly and the patients with neurodegenerative diseases. To date, the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms by which hyperhomocysteinemia induces cognitive impairment has not been clearly defined. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible cellular and molecular mechanisms behind hyperhomocysteinemia signaling in rat memory impairment. The results from this study demonstrated that hyperhomocysteinemia induced neuronal damage and loss in hippocampal CA3 region and downregulated the cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) phosphorylation. The findings of this study provide evidence that hyperhomocysteinemia induces rat memory impairment via injuring hippocampal CA3 neurons and downregulating CREB phosphorylation.
