Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effects of dl-3-n-butylphthalide（NBP）on amyloid β peptide 25-35（Aβ25-35）-induced apoptosis in PC-12 cells.Methods Cultured PC12 cells were divided into 6 groups：normal group,Aβ25-35 treated model group,0.1,1.0,10,100 μmol/L NBP pretreatment groups.MTT assay was employed to analyze the PC12 cell viability.The ultrastructural changes of neuronal mitochondria were viewed under transmission electron microscope.In order to observe the effects of oxidative stress,MDA and SOD activities were detected by spectrophotometry.Results NBP pretreatment could significantly prevent the cell viability induced by Aβ25-35（P 0.05）.Pretreatment with 10 μmol/L NBP could significantly inhibit the viability decrease induced by Aβ25-35（P 0.05）.Compared with the cells in the model group,the number and morphology of neuronal mitochondria changed distinctly in the NBP pretreated cells.The activity of SOD in the NBP pretreated cells was obviously higher than that of the cell in the model group,while MDA activity had opposite result.Conclusion NBP could protect the mitochondria in Aβ25-35 induced apoptosis by inhibiting the MDA activity and activating the SOD activity.
