Zusammenfassung:The impairment of cognitive function was considered as a major clinic feature in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. Thus, a number of researches related to AD were focused on the changes in brain. However, as a neurodegenerative disorder with systemic inflammation, the periphery organs may also play a key role in AD pathology. Here, we pose the hypothesis that histopathology and inflammatory response of periphery organs may alter with aging in APP/PS1 mouse model. Therefore, we performed immunohistochemical staining technology to double label Aβ plaques and microglia cells in brain. The H&E staining was performed in periphery tissues and the mRNA expression of inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α were also determined. Next, the index of oxidative stress was measured. Consequently, the level of inflammatory factors was significantly increased in 24 months APP/PS1 mice. Furthermore, the enzyme activity of SOD, CAT and GSH were significantly decreased in colon and other organs. Our results demonstrated the increased inflammation response and declined antioxidative capacity of periphery organs in aged APP/PS1 mice, which suggesting that a more comprehensive perspective to study AD were necessary. •Despite accumulation of Aβ peptides, the periphery organs may also play a key role in AD pathology.•The number of Aβ plaques increased with aging and microglia cells were activated around the Aβ plaques.•Inflammation response increased and antioxidative capacity declined in periphery organs of aged APP/PS1 mice.
