ABSTRACT
Chinese bayberry (Myrica rubra Sieb. et Zucc.) pomace wine (CPW) is fruity and rich in bioactive compounds, with high nutritional value and antioxidant activities. This study aims to investigate the protective effect of CPW on the oxidative damage induced by hydrogen peroxide in human hepatocellular carcinoma (HepG2) cells and CPW's possible underlying mechanism. The fluorescence assay results revealed that CPW pre-treatment inhibited intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation in H2O2-induced HepG2 cells and cell membrane injury. Meanwhile, CPW remarkably enhanced the activity of antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione reductase (GR), and the content of glutathione (GSH). Moreover, CPW pretreatment significantly regulated the expression of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway-associated genes (Keap1, Nrf2, NADPH quinone oxidoreductase I (NQO1), and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)) and its downstream antioxidant genes (SOD, CAT, GSH, and the glutamate-cysteine ligase catalytic (GCLC) subunit) in HepG2 cells. These data demonstrated that CPW prevented H2O2-induced oxidative stress by regulating the Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway.
