Structural vascular abnormality was observed in cortical branch of cerebral arteries in KK-A mice. Leakage of EB dye was markedly increased in KKA mice compared with C57BL/6J mice. Administration of telmisartan significantly decreased the EB extravasations. Co-treatment with GW9662 attenuated telmisartan-mediated protective effects of BBB in KK-A mice. Conclusions: These findings suggest that telmisartan has protective effects on cognitive decline in diabetic mice, partly due to prevention of BBB disruption via possible synergistic activation of PPAR-g as well as blockade of angiotensin II type 1 receptor signaling.
