The expression levels of B cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl‑2) were increased, and the expression levels of caspase‑3, Bcl‑2 associated X protein and AD‑associated proteins were decreased in the hippocampus following treatment with vildagliptin.
"Xiusanzhen" can regulate the expression of hippocampal Bcl-2 and Bax proteins in AD rats, which may contribute to its clinical effect in relieving AD, and the therapeutic effect depends on the integrity of the olfactory nerve pathway.
