1 Rosuvastatin alleviates high-salt and cholesterol diet-induced cognitive impairment in rats via Nrf2-ARE pathway. Rosuvastatin Calcium NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Rattus norvegicus
2 METHODS: In silico studies were performed to check the theoretical binding of rosuvastatin to the Nrf2 target. Rosuvastatin Calcium NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Rattus norvegicus
3 RESULTS: Rosuvastatin showed good theoretical affinity to Nrf2, significantly reversed changes in oxidative biomarkers which were induced by HSCD, and also improved the performance of rats in the neurobehavioral test. Rosuvastatin Calcium NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Rattus norvegicus
4 DISCUSSION: We have investigated a novel mechanism of action for rosuvastatin (via the Nrf2-ARE pathway) and demonstrated that it has the potential to be used in the treatment of cognitive impairment. Rosuvastatin Calcium NFE2 like bZIP transcription factor 2 Rattus norvegicus
