This study was designed to investigate whether telomerase was involved in the neuroprotective effect of curcumin and Cur1. Alzheimer''s disease is a consequence of an imbalance between the generation and clearance of amyloid-beta peptide in the brain. In this study, we used Aβ1-42 (10 µg/ml) to establish a damaged cell model, and curcumin and Cur1 were used in treatment groups. We measured cell survival and cell growth, intracellular oxidative stress and hTERT expression. After RNA interference, the effects of curcumin and Cur1 on cells were verified. Exposure to Aβ1–42 resulted in significant oxidative stress and cell toxicity, and the expression of hTERT was significantly decreased. Curcumin and Cur1 both protected SK-N-SH cells from Aβ1–42 and up-regulated the expression of hTERT. Furthermore, Cur1 demonstrated stronger protective effects than curcumin. However, when telomerase was inhibited by TERT siRNA, the neuroprotection by curcumin and Cur1 were ceased. Our study indicated that the neuroprotective effects of curcumin and Cur1 depend on telomerase, and thus telomerase may be a target for therapeutic effects of curcumin and Cur1. 相似文献

Recent results suggest that telomerase is involved in many more cellular processes than merely telomere elongation. These include telomere-independent anti-apoptotic, cytoprotective and pro-proliferative effects of telomerase or protection of mitochondrial DNA against oxidative stress. Telomerase also participates in DNA repair and its essential subunits, hTR and hTERT, are able to modulate independently the cell's response to DNA damage. Recent high throughput analyses of gene expression showed that hTERT expression modulates expression of about 300 genes, including genes involved in the regulation of cell cycle progression, proliferation and differentiation. Besides the well-known telomerase catalytic activity of RNA-dependent DNA polymerase, its RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity was recently described in association with the RNA subunit of mitochondrial RNA processing endoribonuclease, thus suggesting involvement of telomerase in RNA interference processes. These recent discoveries open novel possibilities and entirely unexpected research perspectives, branching off from the mainstream telomere and telomerase research. 相似文献
