Results: Full-course swimming time was obviously longer in model group than these in treated and control group. In model group, the expression of PSD-95 and synaptophysin decreased, expression of -Synuclein increased. Treated group normalized the expression of the targeted proteins. Retrograde degeneration of neuron of hippocampus was observed In model group, and dysmorphic synapses were observed In the neuropil. Conclusions: There were low PSD-95, synaptophysin levels and high -Synuclein levels in the brain of ICV injection of STZ rats. Analog 165 of APP5-mer peptide improves the expression of the three proteins to some extent; therefore it may protect synapse and improve learning ability and memory.
