Type:
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) is a key neurotrophin (a type of growth factor) involved in brain health, and its role in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) has been extensively studied.
-AD patients often have lower BDNF levels in key brain regions, such as the hippocampus and cortex.
-This reduction correlates with cognitive decline and brain atrophy.
-BDNF normally protects neurons from Aβ toxicity
-Exercise and cognitive training have been shown to boost BDNF levels and may slow cognitive decline.
- natural compounds (like curcumin or flavonoids) may also upregulate BDNF.

- Review, AD, NA
*memory↑, Feeding hyperinsulinemic rats with caffeic acid (30 mg/kg b.w./day) for 30 weeks significantly improved their memory and learning impairments caused by a high-fat diet
*cognitive↑, caffeic acid (100 mg/kg for two weeks) significantly improved learning deficits and increased cognitive function
*p‑tau↓, pretreatment with caffeic acid (10 μg/mL) decreased the level of phosphorylated tau protein
*ROS↓, Caffeic acid (100 mg/kg for two weeks) also suppressed oxidative stress, inflammation, NF-κB-p65 protein expression, and caspase-3 activity
*Inflam↓,
*NF-kB↓,
*Casp3↓,
*lipid-P↓, caffeic acid (50 mg/kg/day) improved cognitive functions and inhibited lipid peroxidation and nitric oxide formation in the brain
*AChE↓, Caffeic acid (12 μg/mL) inhibited acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase activity in the brain of untreated rats in vitro
*BChE↓,
*GSK‐3β↓, improves cognitive functions, probably by inhibiting NF-κB and GSK3β signaling and acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase activity (
*5LO↓, we consider the inhibitory effect of caffeic acid on 5-lipoxygenase as another factor in protecting the brain against damage
*BDNF↓, Caffeic acid also increased the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in stressed mice; the effect was mediated by 5-lipoxygenase inhibition
VEGF↓, the primary way how caffeic acid affects hepatocellular carcinoma in vitro is inhibiting VEGF expression
HSP70/HSPA5↓, affeic acid (20 μM) also decreased the expression of mortalin(mitochondrial 70 kDa heat shock protein),
