EFFECT OF CURCUMIN LIPOSOMAL FORM ON ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ACTIVITY, CYTOKINES AND COGNITIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE RATS WITH ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE MODEL

The purpose of the study was the investigation of curcumin liposome form effect on angiotensinconverting enzyme activity, cytokines and mnestic features of rats with experimental model of Alzheimer’s disease. In the animals with intrahippocampal injection of Аβ42_Human, nasal therapy with curcumin liposome form was used. Cytokine concentration and angiotensin converting enzyme activity in brain regions (cerebral cortex and hippocampus) and in blood serum as well as indicators of conditioned avoidance response were registered. It was found that as a result of curcumin therapy the rats with Alzheimer’s disease had suppressed cytokine and angiotensin converting enzyme activities and recovered mnestic indices. Nasal therapy with curcumin liposome form gave reduction of angiotensin-converting enzyme activity and anti-cytokine effect in the target regions of the brain (cerebral cortex and hippocampus), which helped the rats mnestic features and memory recovery
