Study on the Pharmacological Efficacy and Mechanism of Dual-Target Liposome Complex AD808 Against Alzheimer’s Disease

<b>Background/Objectives</b>: To study the efficacy and pharmacological mechanism of the dual-target liposome complex AD808 in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease. <b>Methods</b>: Using APP/PS1 mouse models, the therapeutic efficacy and pharmacological mechanism of AD808 on Alzheimer's disease were studied through water maze tests, brain tissue staining, immunofluorescence, and ELISA for inflammatory and neurotrophic factors. <b>Results</b>: AD808 exhibited significant pharmacodynamic effects in improving behavioral and cognitive abilities (70% reduction in escape latency) and repairing damaged nerve cells (90% reduction in Aβ plaque) in Alzheimer's disease mice. The efficacy of the liposome complex AD808 was significantly better than that of ST707 or gh625-Zn₇MT3 alone. AD808 significantly reduced brain inflammation (57.3% and 61.5% reductions in TNF-α and IL-1β, respectively) in AD (Alzheimer's disease) mouse models and promoted the upregulation of neurotrophic factors and nerve growth factors (142.8% increase in BDNF, 275.9% in GDNF, and 111.3% in NGF-1) in brain homogenates. By activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in brain microglia, AD808 upregulated TREM2 protein expression and removed Aβ amyloid plaques in the brain. Additionally, it promoted the transition of microglia from the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype, regulated the M1/M2 balance, released anti-inflammatory and neurotrophic factors, reduced chronic inflammation, and enhanced neurological repair. Based on these results, the potential pharmacological mechanism of AD808 against Alzheimer's disease was proposed. <b>Conclusions</b>: As a dual-target liposome complex, AD808 has shown promising therapeutic potential in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, providing a new strategy for innovative drug development.
