Background: Neonatal bacterial infections have been reported to cause white matter loss, although studies concerning the influence of infection on the expression of myelin and aging are still in their emerging state. Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the effects of perinatal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) exposure on the myelination at different age points using histochemical and immunocytochemical techniques and the relative motor coordination. Methods: A rat bacterial infection model was established by exposing the neonatal rats with LPS (0.3 mg/kg body weight, i.p., on postnatal day (PND) 3 followed by a booster at PND 5) and its impact was studied on the myelination and motor coordination in young, adult, and senile rats. Results: The results obtained suggest that the administration of LPS induces demyelination, predominantly in cortex and corpus callosum. Low expression level of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG) was observed at all time points, with prominence at 12, 18, and 24 months of age. In addition, reduced staining with luxol fast blue stain was also recorded in the experimentals. With the increasing demyelination and declining motor ability, LPS exposure also seemed to accelerate normal aging symptoms. Conclusion: There is a direct correlation of myelin damage and poor motor coordination with age. This would provide a better incite to understand inflammation-associated demyelinating changes in age-associated neurodegenerative disorders. Since, no long-term studies on behavioral impairments caused by LPS-induced demyelination in the central nervous system has been reported so far, this work would help in the better understanding of the long-term pathological effects of bacterial-induced demyelination.
