Abstract

Objective : This experiment was designed to investigate the effect of KongJin-dan(KJD) on the Alzheimer's disease. Method : The effects of KJD on $LI-1{\beta}$, IL-6, $TNF-{\alpha}$, amyloid precursor proteins(APP), acetylcholinesterase(AChE), glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) mRNA of PC-12 and THP-1 cell treated by CT105 and AChE activity, APP production of PC-12 cell lysate treated by CT105 were investigated, respectively. Results : 1. KJD suppressed $LI-1{\beta}$, IL-6, $TNF-{\alpha}$, APP, AChE, GFAP mRNA in THP-1 and PC-12 cell treated by CT105. 2. KJD suppressed AChE activity and production of APP significantly in cell lysate of PC-12 cell treated by CT105. Conclusions : This study shows that KJD might be usefully applied for prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
