Acute myocardial ischaemia/reperfusion (MI/R) injury causes severe arrhythmias with a high rate of lethality. Extensive research focus on endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and its dysfunction which leads to cardiac injury in MI/R Our study evaluated the effects of sulodexide (SDX) on MI/R by establishing MI/R mice models and in vitro oxidative stress models in H9C2 cells. We found that SDX decreases cardiac injury during ischaemia reperfusion and decreased myocardial apoptosis and infarct area, which was paralleled by increased superoxide dismutase and reduced malondialdehyde in mice plasm, increased Bcl‐2 expression, decreased BAX expression in a mouse model of MI/R. In vitro, SDX exerted a protective effect by the suppression of the ER stress which induced by tert‐butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) treatment. Both of the in vivo and in vitro effects were involved in the phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase (PI3K)/Akt signalling pathway. Inhibition of PI3K/Akt pathway by specific inhibitor, LY294002, partially reduced the protective effect of SDX. In short, our results suggested that the cardioprotective role of SDX was related to the suppression of ER stress in mice MI/R models and TBHP‐induced H9C2 cell injury which was through the PI3K/Akt signalling pathway.  相似文献

Kombucha (KT), a fermented black tea (BT), is known to have many beneficial properties. In the present study, antioxidant property of KT has been investigated against tertiary butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) induced cytotoxicity using murine hepatocytes. TBHP, a reactive oxygen species inducer, causes oxidative stress resulting in organ pathophysiology. Exposure to TBHP caused a reduction in cell viability, increased membrane leakage and disturbed the intra-cellular antioxidant machineries in hepatocytes. TBHP exposure disrupted mitochondrial membrane potential and induced apoptosis as evidenced by flow cytometric analyses. KT treatment, however, counteracted the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential and prevented apoptotic cell death of the hepatocytes. BT treatment also reverted TBHP induced hepatotoxicity, however KT was found to be more efficient. This may be due to the formation of antioxidant molecules like D-saccharic acid-1,4-lactone (DSL) during fermentation process and are absent in BT. Moreover, the radical scavenging activities of KT were found to be higher than BT. Results of the study showed that KT has the potential to ameliorate TBHP induced oxidative insult and cell death in murine hepatocytes more effectively than BT.  相似文献

Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) of the vascular endothelium plays a key role in the development of pulmonary oxygen toxicity. We studied the effect of steroid on hyperoxia-induced ICAM-1 expression using cultured endothelial cells in vitro. Human pulmonary artery endothelial cells (HPAECs) were cultured to confluence, and then the monolayers were exposed to either control (21% O(2)-5% CO(2)) or hyperoxic (90% O(2)-5% CO(2)) conditions with and without a synthetic glucocorticoid, methylprednisolone (MP). MP reduced hyperoxia-induced ICAM-1 and ICAM-1 mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner. Neutrophil adhesion to hyperoxia-exposed endothelial cells was also inhibited by MP treatment. In addition, MP attenuated hyperoxia-induced H(2)O(2) production in HPAECs as assessed by flow cytometry. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay demonstrated that hyperoxia activated nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) but not activator protein-1 (AP-1) and that MP attenuated hyperoxia-induced NF-kappaB activation dose dependently. With Western immunoblot analysis, IkappaB-alpha expression was decreased by hyperoxia and increased by MP treatment. These results suggest that MP downregulates hyperoxia-induced ICAM-1 expression by inhibiting NF-kappaB activation via increased IkappaB-alpha expression.  相似文献

D-Saccharic acid 1,4-lactone (DSL) is a derivative of D-glucaric acid. It is a beta-glucuronidase inhibitor and possesses anticarcinogenic, detoxifying, and antioxidant properties. In the present study, the protective effects of DSL were investigated against tertiary butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) induced cytotoxicity and cell death in vitro using murine hepatocytes. Exposure of TBHP caused a reduction in cell viability, enhanced the membrane leakage, and disturbed the intracellular antioxidant machineries in murine hepatocytes. Investigating the signaling mechanism of TBHP-induced cellular pathophysiology and protective action of DSL, we found that TBHP exposure disrupted mitochondrial membrane potential, facilitated cytochrome c release in the cytosol, and led to apoptotic cell death via mitochondria-dependent pathways. DSL counteracted these changes and maintained normalcy in hepatocytes. Combining, results suggest that DSL possesses the ability to ameliorate TBHP-induced oxidative insult, cytotoxicity, and apoptotic cell death probably due to its antioxidant activity and functioning via mitochondria-dependent pathways.  相似文献

Methylprednisolone (MP), a synthetic glucocorticoid, is widely used clinically and experimentally as acute antiinflammatory treatment. The molecular actions of MP indicate that pretreatment with this drug may be cardioprotective. We investigated if giving rats MP prior to excising their hearts for Langendorff-perfusion protected cardiac function against oxidative stress, and if this was mediated by increasing antioxidant defence or influencing myocardial nitric oxide synthase (NOS). Rats (n=6-11 in each group) were injected with MP (40 mg/kg i.m.) or vehicle 24 and 12 h before Langendorff-perfusion with 30 min global ischaemia and 60 min reperfusion, or 10 min perfusion with 180 μmol/L hydrogen peroxide. Other hearts were exposed to 30 min global ischaemia 5 days after MP-injection. Additional hearts were sampled before, during, and after ischaemia for analyzing tissue activity of antioxidant enzymes. Tissue endothelial and inducible NOS (eNOS and iNOS) were investigated by immunoblotting and semiquantitative RT-PCR in a time-course after MP injection. Pretreatment with MP improved left ventricular function and increased coronary flow during postischaemic reperfusion, and this effect was sustained 5 days afterwards. When exposing hearts to hydrogen peroxide, MP improved coronary flow. Catalase, glutathione peroxidase, and oxidized glutathione were increased during reperfusion of MP-treated hearts compared to vehicle only. MP did not influence eNOS at protein or mRNA level. iNOS could not be detected by immunoblotting, indicating low cardiac enzyme content. Its mRNA initially increased the first hour after injection, thereafter decreased. In conclusions, pretreating rats with MP protects the heart against ischaemia-reperfusion dysfunction. This effect could be due to increase of tissue antioxidant activity during reperfusion. MP did not influence cardiac eNOS. mRNA for iNOS was influenced by MP, but the corresponding protein could not be detected.  相似文献

Methylphosphonate oligodeoxynucleotides (MPO's) with isomerically pure Rp-configurated methylphosphonates (MP's) were synthesized by block coupling of ApT and TpA dinucleoside methylphosphonates (DMP's, p indicating MP-linkage). Oligonucleotide duplexes (20 mers) with these Rp-MP's showed almost the same melting temperatures (Tm) as those with phosphorodiester bonds. Further a dependence of the duplex stability from the nucleosides (bases) adjacent to the MP moiety was observed. For the first time thermodynamic parameters for the duplex to coil transition of isomerically pure MP's were determined from the concentration dependence of the Tm. CD-spectra of the duplexes show structural changes which can be associated with the transition to a compact helix with higher helix winding angle.  相似文献

Oxidative stress plays an important role in neurodegenerative diseases. Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated stress in microglia in vivo could result in cellular injuries and preferentially induces neuronal injury. Corilagin, a novel member of the phenolic tannin family, has been shown to possess antioxidant properties. In this study, we investigated the effects of corilagin on tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)-induced injury in cultured N9 murine microglial cells and the underlying mechanisms by a methyltetrazolium assay and oxidative damage assay. We found that exposure of N9 cells to TBHP induced cytotoxicity as demonstrated by cell shrinkage, loss of cell viability, increased lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) leakage, and increased intracellular levels of ROS. By contrast, TBHP reduced both superoxide dismutase activity and total cell anti-oxidation capacity, but glutathione was not reduced. Moreover, TBHP treatment was associated with the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, and it induced cell apoptosis through the mitochondrial-mediated pathway involving the down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression and up-regulation of the Bax/Bcl-2 ratio. Interestingly, pre-treatment with corilagin reversed these reactions. These data collectively indicated that corilagin could attenuate TBHP-induced oxidative stress injury in microglial cells, and its protective effects may be ascribed to its antioxidant and antiapoptotic properties. Our findings suggest that corilagin should be a potential candidate for the treatment of oxidative stress-induced neurodegenerative diseases.  相似文献

Was demonstrate the protection ability against reactive oxygen species afforded toS. cerevisiae (wild-type strain SP4 and its mutants deficient in major antioxidant enzymes—catalase T and A, CuZnSOD) by PYA and PYE, new groups of phenolic antioxidants (quaternary ammonium salts of dihydrocinnamic acid amino esters with different alkyl chains; synthesized in this laboratory). The survival of strains exposed to the lipophilic oxidation inducerstert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) and 1,1′-azobis(4-cyclohexane carbonitrile) (ACCN) with or without antioxidant pretreatment was determined by platingS. cerevisiae mutant deficient in SOD was found to be hypersensitive to TBHP and ACCN while the sensitivity of the strain deficient in catalase T and A was about the same as in the wild-type strain. A 1-h preincubation of cells of both the wild-type and the mutant strains with the phenolic antioxidants prior to exposure to TBHP or ACCN substantially increased the cell survival. The magnitude of protection depended on the strain and the length of the alkyl chain of the antioxidant; the best average protection against TBHP was provided by PYE and PYA compounds with 12-and 16-membered alkyl chains whereas PYE-8 and PYA-12 derivatives, afforded the best average protection against ACCN.  相似文献

We investigated the radical scavenging activity of propolis by ESR spectroscopy using spin trapping method. In addition, we examined the influence of a diet of 2% propolis on mice under oxidative stress. At low concentrations, the methanolic extract of propolis exhibited strong scavenging activity in vitro towards both the superoxide anion radical, generated by the hypoxanthine-xanthine oxidase reaction, and the NO radical, generated from the mixture of NOC-7 (NO generator) and carboxy-PTIO (spin trapping agent). An inhibitory effect of propolis on lipid peroxidation in vivo was observed, as determined by measurement of thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances in mouse liver homogenate. The level of vitamin C in the brain of mice under oxidative stress significantly increased compared with control mice under atmosphere, which was not observed in the mice given 2% propolis. The level of alpha-tocopherol in the brain of mice given 2% propolis significantly increased compared with control mice under atmosphere, which was not observed in mice under oxidative stress. SOD activity in the brain and plasma of mice given 2% propolis significantly decreased under atmosphere and oxidative stress compared with control mice. These results suggest that propolis possesses potent antioxidant activity in vitro and in vivo.  相似文献

The present study investigated the antioxidant signalling mechanism of a coumarin-derived schiff base (CSB) scaffold against tert-butylhydroperoxide (TBHP) induced oxidative insult in murine hepatocytes. CSB possesses DPPH and other free radical scavenging activities. TBHP reduced cell viability and intracellular antioxidant status accompanied by an increase in intracellular ROS production in hepatocytes. TBHP also activated phospho-ERK1/2, phospho-p38 and NF-κB, altered the Bcl-2/Bad ratio, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential, released cytochrome C and activated caspase 3, suggesting that TBHP induced oxidative stress responsive cell death via apoptotic pathway. FACS analysis and DNA fragmentation studies also confirmed the apoptotic cell death in TBHP exposed hepatocytes. Treatment with CSB effectively reduced these adverse effects by preventing the oxidative insult, alteration in the redox-sensitive signalling cascades and mitochondrial events. Combining, results suggest that antioxidant property of CSB make the molecule to be a potential protective measure against oxidative insult, cytotoxicity and cell death.  相似文献

Anthocyanins are flavonoids present in a variety of pigmented food and, like other flavonoids, seem to play a role in preventing human pathologies related to oxidative stress. In fact, anthocyanins have been shown to exert antiproliferative effects in cell cultures and exhibit antiinflammatory and vasoprotective activities in animal models. Although these biological activities have been related to their antioxidant properties, little is known on the molecular mechanism of action of anthocyanins. The effects of pretreatment with the anthocyanins delphinidin, cyanidin, and their glycoside and rutinoside derivatives against induction of DNA damage induced by tert-butyl-hydroperoxide (TBHP) were evaluated in rat smooth muscle and in rat hepatoma cell lines using alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (Comet test). In addition, a possible protection exerted by anthocyanins on cell killing, lipid peroxidation, and redox state alterations induced by TBHP was also investigated. It was found that the treatment with TBHP induces the formation of DNA single strand breaks (SSB) and oxidised bases, along with cell killing, lipid peroxidation and redox state alteration. Our data demonstrate that anthocyanins are effective against cytotoxicity, DNA SSB formation and lipid peroxidation induced by TBHP, but they do not have any detectable effect against impairment by TBHP of cellular redox state and on protection against DNA bases oxidation. The presence of a sugar moiety in anthocyanin derivatives reduced this protective effect, mainly in rat hepatoma cells. The different activity of anthocyanins and their derivatives may be explained taking into account a structure/function relationship that could also influence anthocyanin intracellular localisation.  相似文献

Selenium shows insulin-mimic properties in vitro and in vivo. However, in this study, a high dose of 4 mg/kg/d selenite orally administered to the alloxan-induced diabetic Kun-Ming mice for 4 wk failed to reduce hyperglycemia. Se contents in plasma and tissues such as the liver, kidney, spleen, and brain were determined and the thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) levels were investigated. The results showed that alloxan-induced diabetes did not cause a significant decrease in Se levels in plasma and the above tissues compared to the normal control, but selenite treatment significantly increased Se levels in plasma, liver, and brain of the selenite-treated diabetic mice compared to the nontreated diabetic mice. In addition, selenite treatment for diabetic mice reduced the TBARS levels in red blood cells (RBCs) compared to the normal and improved the glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) levels in RBCs significantly compared to the diabetic control. In conclusion, this study demonstrated that although oral administration of a high dose of selenite had no hypoglycemic effect on diabetic mice in 4 wk, selenite treatment still maintained the antioxidant beneficial effect on the diabetic mice. This study shed more light on the relationship between Se and diabetes.  相似文献

Arjuna (Terminalia arjuna) is a medicinal plant used in many polyherbal hepatoprotective formulations. Although widely claimed to be antioxidant, data supporting such actions of Arjuna are limited. In the present study, we have investigated the efficacy of the aqueous extract of T. arjuna (AETA) using a standard pro‐oxidant [tertiary butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP)] in HepG2 cells. Cells were incubated with AETA (5–100 µg/ml) for a range of time points (4–24 h) with or without TBHP (500 μM), and biochemical markers of oxidative stress (OS) were determined. Cells incubated with TBHP showed the significant induction of OS response in cytosol manifested as lipid hydroperoxide (76%–198%) and the generation of reactive oxygen species (60%–127%). Diminished levels of reduced glutathione (35%–60%) and total antioxidant capacity (20%–61%) suggested an altered redox state. Significant perturbations in the activities of antioxidant enzymes such as catalase (30%–56%), superoxide dismutase (25%–68%), glutathione S‐transferase (29%–67%), glutathione peroxidase (24%–68%) and glutathione reductase (38%–49%) were discernible suggesting the ongoing OS in the cells. However, cells treated with AETA (100 µg/ml) along with TBHP offered significant protection by reducing levels of lipid hydroperoxide (33%–62%) and ROS (69%) and by increasing antioxidant capacity (54%–81%) and levels of reduced glutathione (49%–82%). Further, it also enhanced the activities of endogenous antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, 60%; catalase, 35%–82%; glutathione peroxidase, 42–65 %; glutathione reductase, 48%–62%; and glutathione S‐transferase, 22%–100%). Taken together, these data suggest that Arjuna can protect against the oxidative damage induced by TBHP and may be effectively used as a hepatoprotective adjuvant to abrogate OS in vivo.

The effect of myelopid (MP) on the in vitro antibody production in man in norm and secondary postoperative immunodeficiency state, as well as the effect of immunocorrection therapy with MP on PWM-induced antibody production in LPB cultures during postoperative period have been studied. A stimulating effect of MP on IgA and IgM production in LPB cultures on the 8th day after an operation were only observed in case of PWM stimulation. In early postoperative period, the LPB cultures of patients did not respond to PWM and were not sensitive to MP. In case of immunocorrection with MP in postoperative period, a noticeable response to PWM was observed in vitro on the 8th day, after the operation, whereas sensitivity to MP in vitro was not observed.  相似文献

This investigation aims to evaluate the antitumor and antioxidant potential of Chrysaora quinquecirrha (sea nettle) nematocyst venom on Ehrlich ascites carcinoma (EAC) tumor model. Tumor was induced in mice by intraperitoneal injection of EAC cells. The antitumor effect of sea nettle nematocyst venom (SNV) peptide was evaluated by assessing in vitro cytotoxicity, survival time, hematological, and antioxidant parameters. Intraperitoneal injection of SNV peptide increased the survival time of the EAC-bearing mice. The SNV peptide brought back the altered levels of the hematological and antioxidant parameters in a dose dependent manner in EAC-bearing mice. The results were comparable to that of the result obtained from the animals treated with the standard drug 5-fluorouracil (20 mg/kg bw). Thus, present study revealed that SNV peptide possessed significant antitumor and antioxidant activity.  相似文献
