Green Tea Seed Isolated Theasaponin E1 Ameliorates AD Promoting Neurotoxic Pathogenesis by Attenuating Aβ Peptide Levels in SweAPP N2a Cells

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most frequent type of dementia affecting memory, thinking and behaviour. The major hallmark of the disease is pathological neurodegeneration due to abnormal aggregation of Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides generated by β- and γ-secretases via amyloidogenic pathway. Purpose o...

description Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most frequent type of dementia affecting memory, thinking and behaviour. The major hallmark of the disease is pathological neurodegeneration due to abnormal aggregation of Amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides generated by β- and γ-secretases via amyloidogenic pathway. Purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effects of theasaponin E1 on the inhibition of Aβ producing β-, γ-secretases (BACE1, PS1 and NCT) and acetylcholinesterase and activation of the non-amyloidogenic APP processing α-secretase (ADAM10). Additionally, theasaponin E1 effects on Aβ degrading and clearing proteins neprilysin and insulin degrading enzyme (IDE). The effect of theasaponin E1 on these crucial enzymes was investigated by RT-PCR, ELISA, western blotting and fluorometric assays using mouse neuroblastoma cells (SweAPP N2a). theasaponin E1 was extracted and purified from green tea seed extract via HPLC, and N2a cells were treated with different concentrations for 24 h. Gene and protein expression in the cells were measured to determine the effects of activation and/or inhibition of theasaponin E1 on β- and γ-secretases, neprilysin and IDE. Results demonstrated that theasaponin E1 significantly reduced Aβ concentration by activation of the α-secretase and neprilysin. The activities of β- and γ-secretase were reduced in a dose-dependent manner due to downregulation of BACE1, presenilin, and nicastrin. Similarly, theasaponin E1 significantly reduced the activity of acetylcholinesterase. Overall, from the results it is concluded that green tea seed extracted saponin E1 possess therapeutic significance as a neuroprotective natural product recommended for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease.
