Embodiment

[0060] Methods: Our experimental animals were male C57BL / 6 mice after 10 weeks of birth. Body weight was recorded every day, and a pole climbing test was performed every other day. We performed immunohistochemical staining for non-heme iron in the substantia nigra, liver and spleen by iron staining and Prussian blue staining, and expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the substantia nigra by immunofluorescence. The cells were stained, and the striatal dopamine (DA) content and its metabolites were measured by high performance liquid chromatography. Serum iron (SI), serum ferritin (SI) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) were detected by ELISA. Western blot method was used to detect Lf, lactoferrin receptor (lactoferrin receptor, LfR), divalent metal ion transporter (divalent metal transporter, DMT1), membrane ferroportin (ferriportin1, Fpn1), Bcl-2, Bax and Expression of caspase-3 in the substantia nigra.

Abstract

The invention relates to an application of Lf (lactoferrin) in preparation of PD (Parkinson's disease) treating drugs. The drugs are used for treating or preventing a toxicological action of MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2 ,3 ,6-tetrahydropyridine), the Lf is APO-Lf or HOLO-Lf, the two drugs both can reduce the level of iron in substantia nigra in the brain and play a neuroprotective effect on a patient with PD, APO-Lf and HOLO-Lf have no influence on peripheral iron level, neither are chelated with iron to result in anemia, nor increase iron to cause iron loading. In one embodiment, the Lf is APO-Lf or HOLO-Lf.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of protein medicine, and in particular relates to the application of lactoferrin in preparing Parkinson's treatment medicine. Background technique [0002] Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common degenerative disease of the central nervous system, and its clinical manifestations mainly include resting tremor, muscle stiffness, decreased movement, and postural reflex disorder. The neuropathological basis of PD is the degeneration and loss of dopamine (DA) neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and the resulting decrease in striatal DA content. The etiology of PD is not yet fully understood, but iron accumulation in the substantia nigra (SN) is considered to be involved in the pathogenesis of PD. The midbrain SNpc of PD patients has a large number of activated microglia, and these activated microglia and residual DA neurons have a large amount of iron deposition. However, the relationship between microglial ...
