- Abstract
Aims: In this study, it was aimed to investigate the possible neuroprotective effect of Apigenin-7-Glycoside (AP7Glu), a natural product with known anticancer and anti-inflammatory activity, against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative stress in SH-SY5Y cells. Methods: The effect of H2O2 and AP7Glu on cell viability was determined by XTT analysis. SOD and catalase analyses were performed to determine antioxidant enzyme activities. Expression levels of antioxidant defense system-related genes and caspase genes were evaluated by qRT-PCR analysis. Results: After treatment of 300 µM H2O2 to SH-SY5Y cells for 24 hours, cell viability was determined as 63.18% and this dose was used to induce oxidative stress. H2O2 treatment in the presence of different concentrations of AP7Glu increased cell viability compared to H2O2-treated cells. And, H2O2 decreased SOD and catalase enzyme activities compared to the control group. With the treatment of H2O2 in the presence of AP7Glu, an increase was observed in these enzyme activities compared to H2O2-treated cells. In addition, H2O2 decreased the expression levels of genes associated with the antioxidant defense system and increased the expression levels of Caspase genes. And, H2O2 treatment in the presence of AP7Glu increased the expression levels of genes associated with the antioxidant defense system and decreased CASP8 expression compared to H2O2-treated cells. Conclusion: AP7Glu has a neuroprotective effect against H2O2-induced oxidative stress and neuronal cell death. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
