Abstrakt: Aim of the Study. Late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is recognized as a degeneration disorder in patients' central nervous system over 65 years old who will experience memory decline and cognitive impairment, causing great harm to the health of the elderly. To investigate the role of KL-FGF23-VD axis in LOAD and its molecular mechanism, we designed experiments from two dimensions of cells and animals. Materials and Methods. LOAD rats and Aβ microglia were constructed by using Aβ1-40 and IBO mixture. The effect of KL-FGF23-VD axis on LOAD was investigated by transfecting overexpressing and interfering with KL gene adenovirus, and IKK-16 was added to Aβ microglia to explore the effect of KL-FGF23-VD axis on regulation of IKK/NF-κB signaling pathway. Results. The results showed that, in KL-OE group, FGF23 was decreased in the hippocampus of LOAD rats compared with control and KL-si, and the trend was opposite in the KL-si group. The KL-FGF23-VD axis can alleviate inflammatory response, reduce the deposition of Aβ, and inhibit activation of the NF-κB pathway and neuron apoptosis in brain tissue of LOAD rats. In Aβ microglia, the expression of KL-FGF23-VD axis was consistent with animal experiments. The KL-FGF23-VD axis can inhibit the expression of Aβ microglia inflammatory factors and the activation of microglia and NF-κB pathway. Meanwhile, IKK expression was decreased in KL-OE group compared with KL-si and Control. In the IKK-16 addition group, the ability of KL-FGF23-VD axis to inhibit the activation of microglia and NF-κB pathway was enhanced. Conclusions. These findings suggest a potential role of the KL-FGF23-VD axis in AD treatment by regulating the IKK/NF-κB pathway. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
