The neurotoxicity of aggregated β-amyloid (Aβ) has been implicated as a critical cause in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). It can cause neurotoxicity in AD by evoking a cascade of oxidative damage-dependent apoptosis to neurons. In the present study, we for the first time investigated the protective effect of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), an anionic, water soluble compound that acts as a redox cofactor of bacterial dehydrogenases, on Aβ-induced SH-SY5Y cytotoxicity. Aβ25–35 significantly reduced cell viability, increased the number of apoptotic-like cells, and increased ROS production. All of these phenotypes induced by Aβ25–35 were markedly reversed by PQQ. PQQ pretreatment recovered cells from Aβ25–35-induced cell death, prevented Aβ25–35-induced apoptosis, and decreased ROS production. PQQ strikingly decreased Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, and suppressed the cleavage of caspase-3. These results indicated that PQQ could protect SH-SY5Y cells against β-amyloid induced neurotoxicity. 相似文献

Galantamine, which is currently used in the treatment of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), has been shown to have a neuroprotective effect against beta-amyloid (Aβ) peptide-induced toxicity, which is involved in the pathogenesis of AD. In this study, we investigated the mechanism underlying the protective effect of galantamine on Aβ-induced toxicity in human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y). Using MTT and LDH leakage assays, we observed that galantamine pretreatment significantly prevented Aβ1-40-induced cell death. Aβ1-40-induced overexpression and increased cleavage of both calpain and calcineurin were observed by Western blotting and double immunofluorescent staining. Increased calcineurin phosphatase activity and decreased level of pSer112 BAD were also observed in Aβ1-40-damaged cells. However, all these alterations were found to be reversed by galantamine pretreatment. We also found that the neuroprotection of galantamine can be blocked by an α7 nAChR antagonist. Overall, our results suggest that galantamine may prevent the neuronal damage induced by Aβ1-40 through a mechanism related to the regulation of calpain–calcineurin activation and BAD phosphorylation, which may involve the participation of α7 nAChR. 相似文献

Loss of dopaminergic cells induced by α-synuclein accumulation in substantia nigra causes the development of Parkinson's disease (PD). To date, although autophagy has been implicated in the pathology of PD, the molecular mechanism is still unclear. To study the role of autophagy in PD pathogenesis, we established stable SH-SY5Y cell lines overexpressing wild-type or mutant α-synuclein proteins (A30P or A53T). Overexpression of mutant α-synuclein induced some protein aggregates and cell death in the absence of drug. LC3-II protein, a critical marker for autophagy, was produced in an autophagy-dependent manner. The rotenone-induced cell death was interrupted by autophagy stimulation. Autophagy activation also restored the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) impaired by rotenone in mutant α-synuclein expressing cells. Additionally, autophagy activation significantly relieved rotenone-induced ROS accumulation and HIF-1α expression in neuronal cells expressing mutant α-synuclein proteins. These findings indicate that autophagy plays an important scavenger role against harmful influence of toxic protein aggregates produced in rotenone-treated cells. 相似文献

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common age-related neurodegenerative disorder. A massive accumulation of β-amyloid (Aβ)
peptide aggregates has been proposed as pivotal event in AD. Aβ-induced toxicity is accompanied by a variegated combination
of events including oxidative stress. The Wnt pathway has multiple actions in the cascade of events triggered by Aβ, and drugs
that rescue Wnt activity may be considered as novel therapeutics for AD treatment. Cannabidiol, a non-psychoactive marijuana
component, has been recently proposed as an antioxidant neuroprotective agent in neurodegenerative diseases. Moreover, it
has been shown to rescue PC12 cells from toxicity induced by Aβ peptide. However, the molecular mechanism of cannabidiol-induced
neuroprotective effect is still unknown. Here, we report that cannabidiol inhibits hyperphosphorylation of tau protein in
Aβ-stimulated PC12 neuronal cells, which is one of the most representative hallmarks in AD. The effect of cannabidiol is mediated
through the Wnt/β-catenin pathway rescue in Aβ-stimulated PC12 cells. These results provide new molecular insight regarding
the neuroprotective effect of cannabidiol and suggest its possible role in the pharmacological management of AD, especially
in view of its low toxicity in humans. 相似文献

The antioxidant effect and potential mechanism of nitroxide radical-containing nanoparticles (RNPs) coupled with piperine (PI) were investigated in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cells. The effects of RNP/PI on SH-SY5Y cell lines was determined by WST assay for cell viability, nitroblue tetrazolium and deoxyribose assay for reactive oxygen species generation, ELISA assay for reactive oxygen species products and apoptotic cell death, and biochemical techniques for catalase and glutathione peroxidase activity. The RNP/PI significantly reduced the reactive oxygen species level and reactive oxygen species products compared with those of cells treated with RNPs alone. The RNP/PI treatment enhanced catalase and glutathione peroxidase activity. The combination of RNP/PI has been found to have an augmented antioxidant effect on an Alzheimer's model in vitro. The mechanism of the protective effect of this combination therapy was correlated in this study with its ability to reduce the generation of reactive oxygen species and prevent apoptosis via scavenging enzyme action pathways. 相似文献

In this study, the effects of low-level, GSM emitted ElectroMagnetic Field (EMF) on Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) and alpha-synuclein (α-syn) in human neuroblastoma cells was investigated. Our data indicated alterations on APP processing and cellular topology, following EMF exposure (ℇ = 10.51 V/m, SAR = 0.23 W/kg, exposure time: 3 times, for 10 min, for 2 days). Furthermore, changes in monomeric α-syn accumulation and multimerization, as well as induction of oxidative stress and cell death, were documented. The results presented here require further investigation to determine potential links of EMF with the molecular pathogenic mechanisms in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s Diseases. 相似文献

This study examined whether rats can simultaneously learn to associate lithium chloride (LiCl)-induced nausea with both contextual and intravascular taste cues. During the conditioning phase (4 days, 72 h apart), 32 male Long Evans rats were injected intraperitoneally with either isotonic saline (NaCl), lithium chloride (LiCl, 127 mg/kg), saline plus 2% saccharin (NaCl + Saccharin), or lithium chloride plus 2% saccharin (LiCl + Saccharin) immediately prior to a 30 min exposure to a novel context. 72 h following the final conditioning day, each animal was re-exposed to the context on a drug-free test day. The next day, animals received a 24 h 2-bottle preference test with a choice between water and a palatable saccharin solution. Results showed that animals treated with LiCl during conditioning, with or without saccharin, displayed significantly higher levels of conditioned gaping responses, indicative of nausea, upon re-exposure to the context, relative to NaCl and NaCl + Saccharin controls. Animals administered LiCl + Saccharin during conditioning also displayed significant conditioned taste avoidance to the saccharin solution during the two bottle choice test. These results indicate that systemic administration (intraperitoneal) of a LiCl + Saccharin solution is effective in simultaneously conditioning toxin elicited nausea to both internal (taste) and external (context) cues. 相似文献

A phospholipase-C-linked nucleotide receptor, sensitive to both uridine and adenosine triphosphate (UTP and ATP) has been cloned from NG108-15 neuroblastoma × glioma hybrid cells. We have tested whether activation of this receptor could inhibit the voltage-dependent K+ current [I
K(M) or M-current] in NG108-15 cells recorded using whole-cell patch-clamp methods. Both UTP and ATP inhibited I
K(M) by 44% and 42%, respectively, at 100 M. Mean IC50 values were: UTP, 0.77±0.27 M; ATP, 1.81±0.82 M. The order of nucleotide and nucleoside activity at 100 M was: UTP = ATP > ATP[S] = ITP > 2 MeSATP > ADP = GTP AMP-CPP, adenosine, where ATP[S] is adenosine 5-O-(3-thiotriphosphate), ITP is inosine 5-triphosphate, 2-MeSATP is 2-methylthio ATP and AMP-CPP is , methylene ATP. This rank order accords with their activities at the cloned P2U receptor. Effects were not inhibited by suramin (up to 500 M) or by pre-incubation for 12 h in 500 ng·ml–1
Pertussis toxin. Inhibition of IK(M) was frequently preceded by a transient outward current, probably a Ca2+-activated K+ current, responding to Ca2+ mobilization. No effect on the delayed rectifier K+ current was observed. These observations match those expected from stimulating other phospholipase-C-linked receptors in NG108-15 cells.Shemyakin Institute of Bio-organic Chemistry, on leave from the Russian Academy of Sciences, 142292 Pushchino, Moscow Region, Russia 相似文献

Amyloid-beta peptide (Aβ) is implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer''s disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder. This study was designed to determine the effect of four medicinal plants used to treat neurodegenerative diseases on Aβ-induced cell death. Cytotoxicity of the ethanol extracts of the plants was determined against SH-SY5Y (human neuroblastoma) cells which were untreated, as well as toxically induced with Aβ, using the MTT and neutral red uptake assays. Cell viability was reduced to 16% when exposed to 20 µM Aβ25–35 for 72 h. The methanol extract of the roots of Ziziphus mucronata Willd., Lannea schweinfurthii (Engl.) Engl. and Terminalia sericea Burch. ex DC., were the least toxic to the SH-SY5Ycells at the highest concentration tested (100 µg/ml). All four plants tested were observed to reduce the effects of Aβ-induced neuronal cell death, indicating that they may contain compounds which may be relevant in the prevention of AD progression. 相似文献

We have previously demonstrated that Leptin reduces extracellular amyloid β (Aβ) protein both in vitro and in vivo, and intracellular tau phosphorylation in vitro. Further, we have shown that these effects are dependent on activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in vitro. Herein, we investigated downstream effectors of AMPK signaling directly linked to tau phosphorylation. One such target, of relevance to Alzheimer's disease (AD), may be GSK-3β, which has been shown to be inactivated by Leptin. We therefore dissected the role of GSK-3β in mediating Leptin's ability to reduce tau phosphorylation in neuronal cells. Our data suggest that Leptin regulates tau phosphorylation through a pathway involving both AMPK and GSK-3β. This was based on the following: Leptin and the cell-permeable AMPK activator, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxyamide ribonucleoside (AICAR), reduced tau phosphorylation at AD-relevant sites similarly to the GSK-3β inhibitor, lithium chloride (LiCl). Further, this reduction of tau phosphorylation was mimicked by the downregulation of GSK-3β, achieved using siRNA technology and antagonized by the ectopic overexpression of GSK-3β. These studies provide further insight into Leptin's mechanism of action in suppressing AD-related pathways. 相似文献

The role protein phosphatase 2B (calcineurin, CaN) plays in learning and memory has received a significant amount of attention due to its promotion of the dephosphorylation of 3′-5′-cyclic AMP response element binding protein (CREB). Researchers have ascertained that overexpression of CaN is associated with memory retention deficits [Foster TC, Sharrow KM, Masse JR, Norris CM, Kumar A (2001) Calcineurin links Ca2+ dysregulation with brain aging. J Neurosci 21:4066–4073; Mansuy IM, Mayford M, Jacob B, Kandel ER, Bach ME (1998) Restricted and regulated overexpression reveals calcineurin as a key component in the transition from short-term to long-term memory. Cell 92:39–49], while CaN inhibition enhances learning and memory [Gerdjikov TV, Beninger RJ (2005) Differential effects of calcineurin inhibition and protein kinase A activation on nucleus accumbens amphetamine-produced conditioned place preference in rats. Eur J Neurosci 22:697–705; Ikegami S, Inokuchi K (2000) Antisense DNA against calcineurin facilitates memory in contextual fear conditioning by lowering the threshold for hippocampal long-term potentiation induction. Neuroscience 98:637–646]. The present study hypothesized that infusion of a CaN inhibitor (FK506) bilaterally into the olfactory bulbs of postnatal day 6 Sprague Dawley rat pups would prolong the duration of a conditioned odor preference and retard cyclic AMP response element binding protein dephosphorylation. A 2 mg/kg s.c. injection of isoproterenol (ISO, β-adrenoceptor agonist) was paired with a 10 min exposure to peppermint and subsequently an infusion of FK506. Immunohistochemistry for phosphorylated 3′-5′-cyclic AMP response element binding protein (pCREB) revealed that unilateral infusion of FK506 resulted in an amplification of phosphorylated CREB in the olfactory bulb 40 min after training compared with saline-infused bulbs. Pups infused bilaterally with FK506 maintained a learned preference for peppermint 48, 72 and 96 h after training. CaN inhibition also modified the conventional inverted U curve obtained when ISO is used to replace stroking, as the unconditioned stimulus. When pups were infused with FK506, learning occurred with sub- and supra-optimal doses of ISO indicating that CaN overcomes non-optimal effects ISO may have on learning. We demonstrate that CaN inhibition can extend the duration of conditioned olfactory memory and may provide a target for memory prolongation that is superior to even phosphodiesterase inhibition observed in previous studies. 相似文献

The neurotoxicity of aggregated β-amyloid (Aβ) has been implicated as a critical cause in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the present study, we investigated the effect of (−)clausenamide ((−)Clau), an aqueous extract of leaves of Clausena lassium (lour) skeel, on the neurotoxicity of Aβ25–35. The viability of differentiated PC12 cells was determined by MTT assay. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. DCFH-DA was used for assessment of intracellular ROS generation, JC-1 and Rhodamine 123 for measurement of mitochondrial transmembrane potential (MMP). The intracellular calcium was determined with Fluo-3. The phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and the expression of Bcl-2, Bax, P53, Caspase 3 were examined by Western blot. The results showed that (−)Clau significantly elevated cell viability. Furthermore, (−)Clau arrested the apoptotic cascade by reversing overload of calcium, preventing ROS generation, moderated the dissipation of MMP and the misbalance of Bcl-2 and Bax, inhibiting the activation of p38 MAPK and the expression of P53 and cleaved Caspase 3. Our results suggested that (−)Clau may be a therapeutic agent for AD. 相似文献

Cardiac sodium channels (Nav1.5) comprise a pore-forming -subunit and auxiliary -subunits that modulate channel function. In the heart, 1 is expressed throughout the atria and ventricles, whilst 3 is present only in the ventricles and Purkinje fibers. In view of this expression pattern, we determined the effects of 3 and 1 co-expression alone, and in combination, on Nav1.5 stably expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells. The current/voltage relationship was shifted –5 mV with either 1 or 3 co-expression alone and –10 mV with co-expression of both 1 and 3. In addition, 3 and 1/3 co-expression accelerated macroscopic current decay. There were significant hyperpolarizing shifts in equilibrium gating relationships with co-expression of 1 and 3 alone and in combination. Co-expression of 1/3 together resulted in a greater hyperpolarizing shift in channel availability, and an increase in the slopes of equilibrium gating relationships. Co-expression of 3 and 1/3, but not 1, slowed recovery from inactivation at –90 mV. Development of inactivation at –70 and –50 mV was accelerated by -subunit co-expression alone and in combination. -Subunit co-expression also reduced the late Na current measured at 200 ms. In conclusion, -subunits modulate Nav1.5 gating with important differences between co-expression of 1 and 3 alone and 1/3 together. 相似文献

To investigate the effect of γ-terpineol on cell proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatoma BEL-7402 cells to elucidate its molecular mechanism. Here, BEL-7402 cells were treated with various concentrations (40, 80, 160, 320 and 640 μg/ml) of γ-terpineol for 48 h, cell proliferation was determined by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-thiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromides (MTT) assay. Cell colony inhibition was determined by soft agar assay. Apoptosis and possible molecular mechanisms were evaluated by morphological observation, flow cytometry analysis, and DNA fragmentation assay. The γ-terpineol significantly suppressed BEL-7402 cell proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Characteristic morphological and biochemical changes associated with apoptosis such as cells shrinkage, deformation and vacuolization of mitochondria, nuclear chromatin condensation and fragmentation, formation of apoptotic bodies were observed after BEL-7402 cells treated with γ-terpineol for 24 h and 48 h. Cell cycle were displayed by flow cytometry analysis, the γ-terpineol treatment resulted in accumulation of cells at G1 or S phase and a blockade of cell proliferation compared to control group. Treating BEL-7402 cells with 320 μg/ml of γ-terpineol for 36 h and 48 h, a typical apoptotic “DNA ladder” was observed using DNA fragmentation assay. The present study demonstrated that possible anti-cancer mechanism of γ-terpineol on human hematomas cells is through inducing cell apoptosis to suppress tumor cell growth. 相似文献
