Royal jelly coordinately enhances hippocampal neuronal expression of somatostatin and neprilysin genes conferring neuronal protection against toxic soluble amyloid-β oligomers implicated in Alzheimer’s disease pathogenesis

Hippocampal somatostatin (SST)-neprilysin (NEP) system functions as a defense system against neurotoxic soluble amyloid-β oligomers associated with onset of Alzheimer’s disease. However, it remains unknown whether royal jelly (RJ) could impact the defense system. In this study using primary cultures...
