Abstract: AIM: To study the protective effects of ginsenosides Rg1 liposome (Rg1-L) on learning and memory impaiment induced by scopolamine hydrobromide in rats, and discuss the relevant mechanisms.METHODS: AD model was made by scopolamine hydrobromide.Ymaze was used to detect the learning and memory abilities.The active of acetylcholinesterase (AchE) in the brain of rats was measured.RESULTS: Rg1-L obviously improved the learning andmemory abilities of AD rats and restrained the activity of AchE.CONCLUSION: Rg1-L improves the learning and memory abilities of AD.The relevant mechanisms may be related to restraining the activity of AchE, improving the lipophilic activity of Rg1 by liposome and bio avalbility.
