Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effect of resveratrol ( RES) against hydrogen peroxide ( H2 O2 )-induced oxidative injury to astrocytes and the related mechanism. Methods Subcultured astrocytes were randomly divided into four groups:negative control group ( treated with normal culture medium) , model control group ( treated with 100 μmol·L-1 H2 O2 for 12 h), resveratrol low dose group (treated with 20 μmol·L-1 RES for 24 h H2O2 for 12 h) and resveratrol high dose group ( treated with 40 μmol·L-1 RES for 24 h before H2 O2 for 12 h) . Cell viability was detected by MTT assay, apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry, apoptotic cell morphology was detected by hochest33258 staining, and the expression of apoptosis-related factors such as caspses-3 and caspase-9 were measured by colorimetric detection. Results MTT assay showed that after treatment with 5, 10, 20, and 40 μmol·L-1 RES for 24 h, cell viability was (100. 46±3. 17)%, (101. 33± 3.14)%, (101. 33±1. 30)%, and (99. 67±2. 62)%, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant as compared with the negative control group [(98. 33±2. 13)%, P>0. 05]. RES showed no effect on astrocyte activity, after treatment with 20 and 40 μmol·L-1 RES, astrocyte activity was significantly elevated to (54. 67±4. 11)% and (70.33± 2. 61)% as compared with model control group (t=3. 59, 7. 13, P<0. 05), RES inhibited hydrogen peroxide-induced decrease in cell viability. Flow cytometry results showed that after treatment with 20, 40 μmol·L-1 RES, the apoptosis rate of astrocytes significantly decreased to (35.51±3. 56)% and (14. 12%±3. 19)% (t=4. 26, 6. 33, P<0. 01) as compared with model control group (46. 31±4. 16)%. Hochest 33258 staining showed that RES inhibited hydrogen peroxide-induced cell apoptosis, besides, the RES treatment also could reduce H2 O2-induced expression of caspses-3 and caspase-9 in astrocytesin a time-dependent manner. Conclusion RES can inhibit hydrogen peroxide-induced astrocytes apoptosis through inhibiting the expression of caspses-3 and caspase-9, which can provide experimental evidence for its treatment of central nervous disorders.
