Abstract:
Objective To study the effect of dimethyl fumarate (DMF) on Aβ-induced oxidative stress by regulating NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) expression and its mechanism.Methods Rat astrocytes were divided into Aβ group,DMF group,Nrf2 group and Nrf2 +DMF group.Expressions of Nrf2,Nqo1,Ho-1,Keap1 mRNA and HDAC were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot respectively.Results The expression levels of Nrf2,Nqo1 and HO-1 mRNA were significantly lower in Nrf2 group and Nrf2+DMF group than in Aβ group and DMF group (P＜0.05) and were significantly higher in DMF group than in Aβ group (P＜0.05) while the expression level of Keap1 mRNA was significantly lower in DMF group and Nrf2+DMF group than in Aβ group and Nrf2 group (P＜0.05).The expression level of HDAC was significantly lower in DMF group and Nrf2+DMF group than in Aβ group and Nrf2 group (6.41±0.43 vs 9.01±1.54,P＜0.05;6.72±0.30 vs 8.76± 0.74,P＜0.05).Conclusion DMF increases the Nrf2 expression by inhibiting the HDAC expression,thus reducing Aβ-induced oxidative stress in rat astrocytes.
