dc.description.abstractCognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is highly related to synaptic dysfunction and neuronal loss. In AD, the hyperphosphorylation of tau compromises axonal transport and leads to the generation of dystrophic neurites, contributing to synaptic impairment. In addition to phospho-tau, AD brains accumulate amyloid-beta. This study evaluated the effect of the brain-penetrant microtubule-stabilizing agent, Epothilone D (EpoD) in the progression of the disease in a double transgenic mouse model of amyloidosis. Young APP/PS1 mice were weekly treated with intraperitoneal injections of EpoD (2 mg/kg) or vehicle solution for 3 months. Memory performance was tested using object-recognition tasks, Y-maze and Morris water maze. EpoD-treated mice improved their performance of cognitive tests, while hippocampal phospho-tau and Aβ levels, especially soluble oligomers, decreased significantly. β/γ-secretase activities were not affected by EpoD in vitro. A significant amelioration of synaptic/neuritic pathology was found. Remarkably, EpoD exerted a neuroprotective effect on SOM-interneurons, a highly AD-vulnerable GABAergic subpopulation. In conclusion, EpoD improved microtubule dynamics and axonal transport in an AD-like context, reducing tau and Abeta accumulation, and promoting neuronal and cognitive protection. These results underline the crosstalk between cytoskeleton pathology and proteinopathy. Therefore, microtubule-stabilizing drugs could be candidates for slowing AD progression at both tau and Aβ pathologies.es_ES
