✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 39 out of 100. Drug development

Topic: Gut, metabolism and diet

Different concentrations of OA were able to induce apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells in a dose-dependent manner. Different concentrations of liraglutide were used to pretreat SH-SY5Y cells, which were able to protect the SH-SY5Y cells from apoptosis induced by OA. Okadaic acid significantly increased tau activation and BACE1 expression in the SH-SY5Y cells, which was blocked with liraglutide pretreatment. The results of a water maze experiment showed that liraglutide had significant protective effects on memory and cognitive ability in AD rats induced with OA, inhibited apoptosis of neural cells in AD rats, and inhibited tau activation and BACE1 expression of neural cells in AD rats induced with OA. Liraglutide has a protective effect on AD in vivo and in vitro, which may be mediated by preventing neuronal apoptosis and inhibiting the activation of tau and the expression of BACE1.

Published in a peer-reviewed journal. Scored zero for study design, sample size, effect reported, studied in people and randomised / blinded because the record does not state it. We have no data on journal's citation record, times cited, citations per year, impact for its field and year, cited by studies here, still being cited, senior author's track record, institution's track record, multi-centre collaboration and free to read, so those were left out: it earned 22 of the 56 points we could judge it on, which is 39 out of 100.
