Dendrobium is one of the most important traditional Chinese medicinal foods used to treat age-related disorders. However, it remains unclear whether Dendrobium affects the progression of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the present study, we investigated the effects of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides (DOP) on the BV2 microglial cell line and the senescence-accelerated mouse prone 8 (SAMPB) mouse strain. In vitro experiments showed that DOP pretreatment contributed to BV2 cells shifting from proinflammatory to anti-inflammatory phenotypes with enhanced A beta clearance in response to A beta insults. For the in vivo study, mice were chronically treated with DOP in drinking water from 4 to 7 months of age. The results showed that DOP remarkably attenuated cognitive decline in SAMP8 mice. DOP also inhibited the increased hippocarnpal microglial activation in SAMPB mice with downregulation of interleukin-1 beta (IL-1 beta), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6), while interleukin-10 (IL-10), neprilysin (NEP) and insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) were upregulated. The accumulation of hippocampal A beta 42 and phosphated Tau proteins in SAMP8 mice was also reduced. Taken together, our data suggest that Dendrobium has the potential to provide neuroprotection against AD-related cognitive impairment via modulation of microglial activation.
