M

itochondrial complexes enzymes (I, II, IV & V) dysfunction

increases neuroinflammatory cytokines, oxidative

stress and alterations of brain metabolic enzymes may be

key pathological hallmarks of autism. Propionic acid (PPA),

an endogenous metabolite produced by gut bacteria and

commonly served as food preservative. Here, first time in the

history of this Propionic acid animal model we established

and validate the huge range of behavioural, biochemical,

neuropathological, morphological and histopathological effects

of direct adenyl cyclase activator Forskolin (FSK) in adult rat’s

brain tissue homogenate, serum and urine in comparison

with control drugs used in Autistic patients. Intraventricular

injection of PPA in rats caused impairment in memory, grip

strength posture and cognitive function. Biochemical analysis

of brain homogenate, serum and urine samples in PPA treated

rats showed an increase in altered mitochondrial complexes

activities, inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress and lipid

biomarkers. Neurohistological and morphological alterations of

hippocampus, basal ganglia and cerebral cortex of PPA treated

rats exhibit severe neuronal space, irregular damaged cells,

dense pyknotic nuclei associated marked focal diffused gliosis.

Forskolin (10, 20 and 30 mg/kg, p.o) once daily treatment for

a period of 15 days significantly improved motor performance

and cognitive behavior task. Further, Forskolin treatment

significantly improved mitochondrial complexes enzyme

activity, attenuated inflammatory and oxidative damage of

rat brain. In present research work, neuroprotective effects of

direct AC activator Forskolin responsible for activation of cAMP/

PKA further leads to CREB activation, and through the repairing

in the basal ganglia, cortex and hippocampus functioning

associate with mitochondrial dysfunctioning in autism as well

as Forskolin effectively reduced the side effects such as weight

gain, gastric discomforts, irritation associatedwith control drugs

used in Autistic patients.
