ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Intracellular iron involves in Fenton's reaction-mediated Hydroxyl radical (OH·) generation by reacting with the neurotoxic agent 6-Hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) autoxidation derivative Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2). Several studies have been conducted so far on the neuroprotective activities of the iron chelator Deferoxamine (DFO) but little or no clear evidence about the underlying cellular mechanism is available.METHODS:
The present study was conducted on Human neuroblastoma cell line SH-SY5Y in the absence or presence of 6-OHDA or H2O2 and / or DFO. Following incubation, cell viability assay, intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) determination, flow cytometric quantification of apoptotic cells followed by nuclear staining, intracellular tracking of transfected fusion construct of microtubule-associated protein 1B-light chain with Green fluorescent protein - Red fluorescent protein (LC3B-GFP-RFP reporters) and immunocytochemistry of intracellular Cathepsin protein by confocal microscopy, were conducted. In addition, western blotting was carried out to detect expressions of apoptotic and autophagy related proteins.RESULTS:
This study confirmed the neuroprotective potential of DFO by inhibiting 6-OHDA-mediated cell death and ROS generation. Reduced percentage of apoptotic cells and appearance of altered nuclei architecture followed by a reduced expression of cleaved PARP (Poly-ADP-ribose Polymerase) and cleaved Caspase-3 were observed upon DFO treatment against 6-OHDA, and as well as against H2O2 in SH-SY5Y cell lines. Besides, DFO induced the intracellular autophagolysosome formation (red puncta) rather than autophagosome (yellow puncta) only. Thereafter it was observed that DFO restored the expression of intracellular lysosomal protease Cathepsin and reduced the expression of the LC3-II.CONCLUSION:
Taken together, this study clearly demonstrated that the anti-Fenton activity of DFO inhibited apoptosis and caused blockade in ALP or autophagy dysfunction in SH-SY5Y cell lines. These outcomes further suggest that DFO provides neuroprotection by inhibiting apoptosis and inducing the progression of Autophagy- lysosomal pathway (ALP).Palavras-chave
