| Abstract | Previous studies demonstrated that a high fat diet (HFD) results in a loss of working memory in mice correlated with neuroinflammatory changes as well as synaptodendritic abnormalities and brain insulin resistance. Cardiotrophin-1 (CT-1), a member of the gp130 cytokine family, has been shown to potentially play a critical role in obesity and the metabolic syndrome. Our recent studies have demonstrated that CT-1 attenuates cognitive impairment and glucose-uptake defects induced by amyloid-β in mouse brain through inhibiting GSK-3β activity. In this study, we evaluated the effect of CT-1 on cognitive impairment induced by brain insulin resistance in mice fed a HFD, and explored its potential mechanism. CT-1 (1 μg/day, intracerebroventricular injection) was given for 14 days to mice that were fed with either a HFD or normal diet for 18 weeks. After 20 weeks of treatment, our results showed that in the HFD group, CT-1 significantly improved learning and memory deficits and alleviated neuroinflammation demonstrated by decreasing brain levels of proinflammatory cytokine tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β, and increasing brain levels of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. CT-1 significantly reduced body weight gain, restored normal levels of blood glucose, fatty acids and cholesterol. Furthermore, CT-1 significantly enhanced insulin/IGF signaling pathway as indicated by increasing the expression levels of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) and the phosphorylation of Akt/GSK-3β, and reducing the phosphorylation of IRS-1 in the hippocampus compared to control. Moreover, CT-1 increased the level of the post-synaptic protein, PSD95, and drebrin, a dendritic spine-specific protein in the hippocampus. These results indicate a previously unrecognized potential of CT-1 in alleviating high-fat diet induced cognitive impairment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
