Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the use of hydroxy fatty acids and derivatives thereof for improving the learning and/or memory ability of a subject.
  • the invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound as an active ingredient.
  • Learning and memory are the necessary processes for animals to change their behavior or to generate new behaviors to adapt to the environment.
  • Human learning and memory are the basis for understanding and transforming the objective world and participating in social practice activities.
  • Physiologists say that learning mainly refers to the process by which the nervous system accepts external environmental information and affects its own behavior.
  • Memory consists of two aspects: remembering and remembering: The mind refers to the brain extracting some useful information from the complicated information of the outside world to form the impression mark, and then selecting some information from the impression mark to form short-term memory, and finally from short-term memory. The selected part of the information forms a process such as long-term memory; the memory refers to the brain extracting relevant information experience stored in the brain according to the current external information, and generating some psychological behavior in combination with external information. The process of reaction or response.
  • the types of learning can be divided into three types (Schunk, 1996).
  • the first type of learning is non-joint learning, also known as simple learning. It does not require a clear connection between stimulation and response. Habituation and sensitization belong to this type of learning.
  • the two types of learning are joint learning, which includes classical conditioning and operational conditioning.
  • Classical conditioning is the way animals learn to judge environmental relationships. For example, in Pavlov (1927), in animal experiments, light is given first and then animal meat is eaten. After several iterations, the animal responds to light and to the meat. The response is the same: light can also cause salivation.
  • a typical example of operational conditioning The experimenter placed a starved rat in a test box with a protruding pressure bar on one side of the wall. The rat pressed the rod by chance and then quickly got the food. The probability of the next pressure bar is higher than the spontaneity. This shows that the animal learns to use food to reward the reflection. After mastering this information, once the animal is hungry, it will go to the box to produce the corresponding Reacting to get food ( Ferster And Skinner, 1957).
  • Latent learning refers to the impact of potential experience on learning outcomes. For example, animals that have entered the labyrinth training environment, although not trained, are more likely to learn more than animals who have never entered the environment.
  • Alternative learning refers to the ability of certain animals to mimic the actions of other animals, such as movements, sounds, etc., which are ubiquitous in higher animals and humans (Ormrod, 1999).
  • the formation of memory consists of three processes of acquisition, consolidation and reproduction.
  • Acquiring is the process of inputting signals into the brain through the sensory system. This process is susceptible to interference from external factors.
  • Consolidation is the stage in which information is stored and stored in the brain. Long-term storage of information is always important to biological individuals. Meaning and often recurring information;
  • Reproduction is the process of extracting information stored in the brain to reproduce it in consciousness (Han Taizhen, Wu Yumei, 1998).
  • human memory can be divided into three stages.
  • the first stage is sensory memory.
  • sensory memory also known as instantaneous memory, which lasts for several hundred seconds to one second (Wen Xuchu et al. , 1995).
  • the second stage is short-term memory, also known as first-level memory.
  • Short-term memory is the result of further processing of words, numbers, words or other information based on sensory memory.
  • the duration of short-term memory generally ranges from a few seconds to a minute (Miller, 19 5 6).
  • the third stage is long-term memory, also known as long-term memory. It is the result of repeated processing by short-term memory. It lasts from a few minutes, a few days to a few years, and even a lifetime.
  • Long-term memory is usually further divided into two types, namely, second-level memory and third-level memory.
  • the second level of memory is a long-term memory stored with weak or slightly stronger memory traces that is easily forgotten.
  • the third level of memory is a deep and deep memory in the mind, with strong memory traces, so that stored information can be called at any time (Schweickert, 1993). Enhance the development of memory drugs
  • AchE (Acetylcholinesterase) University of Columbia Professor Eric Kandel is a pioneer in memory enhancer research. He found the mystery of memory through research on sea otters and won the Nobel Prize. (Kandel, 2001). He found that learning occurs in synapses between two neurons in several ways: when the CREB protein in the nerve cells (cAMP response) When the element binding protein, cAMP response element binding protein, is activated, the synapse is strengthened, and CREB protein also plays a role in memory formation in Drosophila and mice.
  • NMDA N-methyl-D-aspartate, N-methyl aspartate
  • the NMDA channel on the nerve cell membrane must be opened, allowing positive ions to flow into the nerve cell through the NMDA channel, and then These positive ions trigger a cascade of cascades that cause CREB activation (Arumugam, et al 2005). Shimuzu et al. (2000) found that increasing the number of NMDA receptors in the hippocampus of mice resulted in better results in a spatial memory experiment.

  • the ketone body is a product of fatty acid catabolism and is formed only in the liver. It includes 3-hydroxybutyric acid, acetoacetic acid and acetone, of which 3-hydroxybutyric acid is contained in a large amount.
  • the liver contains an enzyme system that synthesizes a ketone body, so that it can form a ketone body, but lacks an enzyme that utilizes a ketone body, so that the ketone body cannot be oxidized, and the produced ketone body needs to be transported to the extrahepatic tissue for further oxidative decomposition by blood.
  • the ketone body of the liver provides energy for extrahepatic tissues and plays an important role in ensuring the brain's energy supply during hypoglycemia to maintain its normal physiological function (Amiel et al, l l ).
