摘要

Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) is commonly seen in patients with obstructive sleep apnea, and has been hypothesized to underlie the neurocognitive dysfunction in these patients. However, its cellular and molecular mechanisms remain to be defined. The present study aimed to investigate, in a mouse CIH model, the role of NMDA receptor (NMDAR) activation in mediating the CIH-induced neurocognitive impairments, caspase expression and dysregulated Ca2+ signaling pathways in hippocampus. Male ICR mice (n=45) were exposed to CIH (8 h/day) or room air (control) for 4 weeks. After 4-week treatment, neurobehavioral assessments were performed by Morris water maze test, hippocampal [Ca2+]i was evaluated by flow cytometry; and protein expressions of caspase-3, caspase-9, PARP, p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB in hippocampus were measured by Western blotting. Our results showed that, compared to control animals, 4-week exposure to CIH produced significant spatial learning and memory impairments in CIH mice. Increased caspase expression in hippocampus was observed in OH mice associated with significant elevation of [Ca2+]i and dephosphorylation of ERK and CREB expression. When the NMDAR antagonist memantine was administered by intraperitoneal injection prior to daily exposure to CIH, at a sub-therapeutic dose of 5 mg/kg/day not shown to impact the neurobehavioral performance in control animals, the neurocognitive impairments as well as the neurobiochemical changes were abolished or normalized in the CIH mice. Our study suggests that overactivation of NMDARs and the Ca2+ overload-dependent ERK/CREB dysregulation is one of the important mechanisms in mediating the CIH-induced neurocognitive impairments.
