Abstract: In this study,Western blot and Real-Time PCR methods were used to investigate the effects of Aβ1-42 oligomers on TNF-alpha expression in human glioblastoma A172 and murine glioblastoma D1A cells by AKT signaling pathway,at the same time,the specific regulation mechanism of Aβ1-42 oligomer induced TNF-alpha expression was detected by immunofluorescence assay.The results showed that Aβ1-42 oligomers can upregulate the expression of inflammatory factor TNF-alpha after treating A172 and D1A cells with Aβ1-42oligomers,and this induction is achieved via the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.Based on this experimental study,we demonstrate that Aβ1-42oligomers participate in the inflammatory reaction in the AD brains,and suggest that anti-inflammation and anti Aβ have important theoretical significance in the clinical treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
