Cognitive-exercise dual-task intervention ameliorates cognitive decline in natural aging rats via inhibiting the promotion of LncRNA NEAT1/miR-124-3p on caveolin-1-PI3K/Akt/GSK3β Pathway.
Brain Research Bulletin 2023 September 15
Aging-related cognitive impairment (ARCI) is rapidly becoming a healthcare priority. However, there is currently no excellent cure for it. Cognitive-exercise dual-task intervention (CEDI) is a promising method to improve ARCI, while the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in the onset, development, and rehabilitation of ARCI. This study aimed to investigate the effects of CEDI and the role of regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1/miR-124-3p on the caveolin-1-PI3K/Akt/GSK3β pathway in CEDI improving cognitive function. Forty 18-month-old natural aging rats were randomly assigned to four groups: exercise training group, cognitive training group, CEDI group, and aging control group, and underwent 12 weeks of intervention. A novel object recognition test was performed to determine the cognitive function, and the hippocampus was separated three days after the behavioral tests for further molecular detection. In an in vitro study, the mouse hippocampal neuronal cell line HT22 was cultured. MiR-124-3p and lncRNA NEAT1 were over-expressed or down-expressed, respectively. The expressions of related proteins, lncRNA, and miRNA were examined by WB and/or qRT-PCR. The results showed that compared with the aging control group, the CEDI group had a higher discrimination index, and significantly decreased the expressions of lncRNA NEAT1, and the protein expressions of caveolin-1 and p-GSK3β, while significantly increased the expressions of miR-124-3p, and the protein expressions of p-PI3K and p-Akt. Inhibition of the lncRNA NEAT1 could significantly increase the protein expressions of p-PI3K and p-Akt in HT22 cells. Upregulation of miR-124-3p decreased the protein expressions of caveolin-1 and p-GSK3β, and increased the protein expressions of p-PI3K and p-Akt significantly. Inhibition of miR-124-3p had the opposite effects. Our study demonstrated that CEDI improved cognitive function in aging rats better than a single intervention. The mechanisms of cognitive improvement could be related to the regulation of the lncRNA NEAT1/miR-124-3p on the caveolin-1-PI3K/Akt/GSK3β pathway.
