The prevalence of vascular cognitive impairment induced by chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI) is increasing year by year. Cognitive-exercise dual-task intervention has shown beneficial effects on improving cognitive performance in ischemic patients. It is well known that the tyrosine kinase ligand-receptor (Ephrin-Eph) system plays an important role in synaptic transmission and that the cAMP/PKA pathway is associated with cognitive function. However, it is unclear whether they are responsible for the dual-task improving cognitive impairment in CCI. Bilateral common carotid artery occlusion (BCCAO) in SD rats was used to establish the CCI model. The effects of dual-task and single-task on cognitive function and the expressions of EphrinA3, EphA4, cAMP, and PKA in rats were detected by the novel object recognition (NOR) test, immunofluorescence staining, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and Western blotting (WB), respectively. Overexpression or knockdown of EphrinA3 in astrocytes or rats were constructed by lentivirus infection to verify the effects of EphrinA3/EphA4 on the cAMP/PKA pathway. After dual-task intervention, the discrimination index of rats increased significantly compared with the rats in the CCI group. The expressions of EphrinA3 and EphA4 were decreased, while the expressions of cAMP and PKA were increased. Furthermore, knockdown of EphrinA3 alleviated the trend of CCI-induced cognitive decline in rats and OGD-stimulated cellular damage. It also increased cAMP/PKA expression in hippocampal neurons. Cognitive-exercise dual-task can significantly improve the cognitive impairment induced by CCI, and this effect may be better than that of the cognitive or exercise single-task intervention. The improvement may be related to the inhibition of EphrinA3/EphA4, followed by activation of the cAMP/PKA pathway.
