【摘要】研究目的:通过对成年大鼠为期8周的蓝莓水补充,观察对其处于慢性心理压力作用下的认知能力的影响作用。方法:12周龄的雄性SD大鼠随机分为四组(n=12/组)。实验期结束后,通过水迷宫测试对大鼠的认知水平进行了评估。结果:水迷宫结果显示,+STR组(压力组)的认知能力较对照组显著降低,而补充蓝莓水的组对此变化有明显改善(P<0.05);与+STR组相比,蓝莓水显著提高了大鼠脑组织中SOD、GSH-PX活性和抗坏血酸含量,并明显增加了血浆中去甲肾上腺素和多巴胺的水平(P<0.05)。结论:实验结果显示,蓝莓水能够有效防止慢性心理压力引起的认知功能障碍。

Abstract: Obiective The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 8-week supplementation of blueberry drink on the cognitive performance of adult rats exposed to chronic psychological stress. Methods Three month-old male Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups. At the end of experimental period, the evaluation of rodent cognitive level was assessed by a water maze test. Results The cognitive performances of the +STR group were impaired evidently as compared to those of the CON group, and these changes were improved significantly by BB drink supplementation (P<0.05). The administration of BB drink also resulted in higher brain SOD, GSH-Px, and ascorbic acid levels, and increased plasma norepinephrine and dopamine levels than the +STR group significantly (P<0.05). Conclusions These findings suggest that blueberry drink may protect against cognitive impairment induced by chronic psychological stress.
