摘要
Background Cognitive impairment is the common complication of diabetes, while its etiology remains not fully understood. Gardenia jasminoides is used in traditional Chinese medicine for clearing heat and detoxification. Its effective components Geniposide and Genipin have been found to show protective effect on diabetic cognitive impairment in our previous study. Whereas the effect and mechanism of Shanzhiside methyl ester (SME), another major component of Gardenia jasminoides , on cognitive impairment has been scarcely reported. Purpose The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of SME on cognitive impairment symptom in diabetic mice. Methods Diabetes was induced by HFD/STZ. HG/PA induced BV2 cells were used as the in vitro model. Results Network pharmacology and bioinformatic analyses showed that HSP90AA1 might be the target of SME. As a result, SME attenuated cognitive impairment-related behavior in Morris water maze and passive avoidance tests. The treatment with SME inhibited inflammation, glycolysis via HSP90AA1/HIF1A/STAT1 signaling both in vivo and in vitro. SME regulated the transcriptions of inflammation, glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation, oxidative stress, lipid metabolism, and mitochondrial stress related genes. The transfection with HSP90AA1 SiRNA or overexpression plasmid, the treatment with HIF1A inhibitor PX478, STAT1 inhibitor Fludarabine suggested that HSP90AA1/HIF1A/STAT1 signaling was required for the anti-inflammatory and anti-glycolytic effects of SME. The treatment with glycolysis agonist oligomycin, hexokinase inhibitor 2-DG, PKM2 activator TEPP46, PKM2 inhibitor Shikonin displayed that glycolysis was critical for the anti-inflammatory effect of SME. It was found that SME might combine with HSP90AA1. Conclusion SME attenuated cognitive impairment symptom of diabetic mice possibly via HSP90AA1/HIF1A/STAT1 mediated anti-inflammatory and anti-glycolytic effects.
