摘要

Oxidative and carbonyl stresses (COS), which damage brain cells through the accumulation of toxic reactive carbonyl species (RCS), are key players in the etiology of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Our group developed lipophenols, i.e. COS-targeting hybrid molecules combining polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and alkyl-(poly)phenols. Among them, quercetin-3-O-docosahexaenoate-7-O-isopropyl (Quercetin-3-O-DHA-7-O-iPr or “Q-iP-DHA”) afforded neuroprotection against acrolein-induced toxicity, reduced carbonyl stress, and lowered amyloid-beta secretion in neuroblastoma cells. To evaluate Q-iP-DHA in vivo, it was formulated into lipid nanocapsules (to allow solubilization) then administered intranasally to J20 transgenic mice, a model of AD. This approach was chosen to optimize blood–brain barrier (BBB) penetration. This delivery led to improvements in well-being, organizational skills and spatial memory. In addition, Q-iP-DHA treatment reduced hippocampal amyloid plaque numbers, normalized expression of the Receptor for Advanced Glycation End-products (RAGE), and decreased microglial activation, indicating anti-inflammatory effects. Overall, our preclinical findings suggest that intranasal administration of nanoformulated Q-iP-DHA may represent a promising multitarget therapeutic approach against AD.
