摘要
Purpose: The memory-enhancing effects of Rhodiola rosea L. extract (RRLE) on normal aged mice were assessed. Methods: In the open-field test, the effect of RRLE (150 and 300 mg/kg) on mouse locomotive activities was evaluated by investigating the extract's influence on CAT and AchE activities in the brain tissue of mice. Results: Compared with aged group, high dose of RRLE reduced the total distance (3212.4 +/- 123.1 cm, p < 0.05) significantly, increased catalase (CAT) activity (101.4 +/- 12.2 U/mg pro, p < 0.05), and inhibited acetyl cholinesterase (AChE) activity (0.94 +/- 0.12 U/mg pro, p < 0.05) in the brain tissue of aged mice. Conclusion: The results show that RRLE improves the memory functions of aged mice probably by increasing CAT activity while decreasing AChE activity.
