Simvastatin ameliorates cognitive impairments via inhibition of oxidative stress‑induced apoptosis of hippocampal cells through the ERK/AKT signaling pathway in a rat model of senile dementia

Liu W, Zhao Y, Zhang X, Ji J (2018) Simvastatin ameliorates cognitive impairments via inhibition of oxidative stress‑induced apoptosis of hippocampal cells through the ERK/AKT signaling pathway in a rat model of senile dementia. Mol Med Rep 17(1):1885-1892. doi: 10.3892/mmr.2017.8098 PMID: 29257256

Objective: To investigate a potential mechanism underlying simvastatin activity in hippocampal cells.

Summary: The preclinical results indicate that simvastatin is efficient in preventing memory lapse and inhibiting apoptosis of hippocampal cells via the ERK/AKT signaling pathway, which may in the future improve cognitive decline and dementia in patients.

Usage: immunohistochemistry (1:500)
