Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the protective effect of sulfated Gastrodia elata polysaccharides (GEPS) on the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by corticosterone (CORT).Methods: After modifying GEP chemically, GEPS was obtained.PC12 cells were pretreated with GEPS (0, 250, 500 and 1 000 μg·ml-1) for 30 min before cultivating with CORT for 48 h.The cellular viability, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release and morphological observation were determined respectively by CCK-8 assay, LDH assay, inverted microscope and DAPI fluorescein stain method.Results: With the pretreatment of GEPS, the survival rate of PC12 cells increased significantly (P<0.05) in a dose-dependent manner.Compared with CORT injured group, GEPS attenuated the release of LDH with statistical significance (P<0.05), and LDH leakage decreased with the concentration of increase GEPS.Under an inverted microscope, PC12 cells incubated with CORT became shrinkage, and aggregated with decreased diopter and bad adhesion,and lots of cells floated.However, with the pretreatment of GEPS, the living status of PC12 cells improved markedly.Compared with CORT injured group, GEPS obviously reduced the apoptosis of PC12 cells.Conclusion: GEPS exhibits protective effects on the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by CORT, while when compared with GEP, GEPS shows the similar effects.The other bioactivities of GEPS need further studies.
