编辑丨王多鱼 排版丨水成文 撰文丨王聪 阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 是最常见的神经退行性疾病,目前尚无有效的治疗方法。细胞外淀粉样斑块、神经原纤维缠结、 神经炎症以及神经元丢失是阿尔茨海默病神经病理学的特征。 β- 淀粉样蛋白 (Aβ) 是淀粉样斑块的主要成分,它是通过 β-分泌酶 BACE1 和 γ-分泌酶对 淀粉样前体蛋白 (APP) 进行连续切割而产生的。 APP、BACE1 和 γ-分泌酶的失调会增加 Aβ 的生成,而小胶质细胞的功能障碍会 降低对 Aβ 的清除,从而导致 Aβ 的沉积。Aβ 沉积的增加反过来会激活小胶质细胞,促进大量促炎细胞因子的分泌。 肠道微生物群及其代谢物的失调在阿尔茨海默病 (AD) 的发病机制中发挥着关键作用。 丁酸 (Butyrate) 是一种短 链脂肪酸 (SCFA) ,主要由肠道细菌通过膳食纤维的发酵产生,具有多种生理功能,包括调节肠道健康、抗炎和神经 保护作用。近年来,研究发现丁酸在大脑健康及神经退行性疾病 (例如阿尔茨海默病) 中可能发挥有益作用。 提高丁 酸的生物利用度,对于其临床应用至关重要。 2025 年 11 月 17 日,温州医科大学/瓯江实验室 吴伊丽 教授 ...
