MSTMP, a Stilbene Derivative, Protects SH-SY5Y Cells Against Oxidative Stress.

AbstractOBJECTIVE:
the protective effects of a novel stilbene derivative, (e)-2-(3,4,5- trimethoxystyryl)-3,5,6-trimethylpyrazine (MStMp), on hydrogen peroxide (h2o2)-induced human derived neuroblastoma cell (Sh-Sy5y) damage and its molecular mechanisms were investigated.
METHODS:
Sh-Sy5y cells were exposed to 200 μmol.l-1 h2o2 for 12 h. the effect of MStMp on cell viability and apoptosis was assessed by 3-(4,5-dimethyl- thiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (Mtt) assay and flow cytometry method. the activities of lactate dehydrogenase (ldh), superoxide dismutase (Sod) and nitric oxide synthetase (noS) and the content of malondialdehyde (Mda), reduced glutathione (gSh) and nitric oxide (no) in cells were determined by commercial kits. the expressions of pro-apoptotic factor caspase-3, caspase-9 and inducible noS (inoS) were detected by Western blotting. intracellular formation of reactive oxygen species (roS) was assessed using 6-carboxy-2’,7’-dichlorofluorescin diacetate (dCfh-da) fluorescent probe.
RESULTS:
MStMp increased the Sh-Sy5y cell viability by inhibition of cell apoptosis induced by h2o2. these effects were accompanied by an increase of Sod activity, gSh level, and a decrease of Mda content. Moreover, MStMp showed stronger effects on inhibition of ldh leakage, apoptotic cells, intracellular roS level and the expression of caspase-3 and caspase-9 than tMp. furthermore, MStMp induced a decrease of no level and the activity of inoS, tnoS in a time-dependent manner.
CONCLUSIONS:
MStMp prevents h2o2-induced cell injury through anti-oxidation and anti-apoptosis via roS-no pathway.
