ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of PPF on oxidative stress and apoptosis of PD model cells induced by MPP+.Methods The human neuroblastoma cell SH-SY5Y was induced by 1 mM MPP+ to establish PD cell model.In PPF treatment group,SH-SY5Y cells were stimulated with 10,20,40 and 80 μM PPF for 4 h before MPP+ induction.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)was performed to evaluate cell proliferation activity.H2DCF-DA fluorescent probe was used to detect ROS in cells.The levels of MDA and NADPH oxidase were analyzed by the kit.Western blot examined the protein expression of cytochrome c in mitochondria and cytoplasm,as well as the relative expression of Bcl-2,Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in SH-SY5Y cells.Apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry.Results MPP+ significantly inhibited the proliferation of SH-SY5Y cells(P<0.001),promoted the level of ROS(P<0.001),MDA(P<0.001),NADPH oxidase(P<0.01),cytochrome c in cytoplasm(P<0.01)and induced apoptosis(P<0.001)and the relative expression of pro-apoptosis protein Bax and cleaved caspase-3(P<0.01),reduced cytochrome c protein in mitochondria(P<0.01)and the relative expression of anti-apoptosis protein(P<0.01).PPF pretreatment alleviated the proliferation inhibition,oxidative stress and apoptosis promotion of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+(P<0.001),and the effects of 40 μM and 80 μM on cells were more significant.Conclusion PPF pretreatment can alleviate the oxidative stress of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MMP+ and reduce apoptosis rate.
