RESUMEN
Crude extracts and phytochemical compounds derived from Annona muricata leaves have been demonstrated to exert neuroprotective effects. However, the neuroprotective effects of Annona muricata leaves-derived polysaccharide extracts (ALPs) have not been investigated. ALP treatment was shown to induce concentration-dependent antioxidant activity in HT22 cells, and to increase cell viability in H2O2-treated HT22 cells. These effects were correlated with a decrease in major components of oxidation, including: Ca2+, ROS, and malondialdehyde (MDA). Mediators of the intracellular response to oxidation, including Bax, cytochrome c, and cleaved caspases-3, -8, -9, MAPKs, and NF-κB, were positively influenced by ALP treatment under conditions of H2O2-mediated oxidative stress. In addition, ALP restored the expression of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and associated signaling pathways (PARP, PI3K/AKT and Nrf2-mediated HO-1/NQO-1) following H2O2 treatment. These results provide new pharmacological evidence that ALP facilitates neuroprotection via prevention of neuronal oxidative stress and promotion of cell survival signaling pathways.Abbreviations: ABTS: 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonicacid); AD: Alzheimer's disease; ALP: polysaccharide extracts isolated from Annona muricata leaves; ARE: antioxidant response element; DPPH: 1,1-diphenyl-picrylhydrazyl; DCFH-DA: 2',7'-dichlorofluorescin diacetate; ECL: electrochemiluminescence; ERK: extracellular regulated kinase; FBS: Fetal bovine serum; FITC: fluorescein isothiocyanate; FRAP: ferric reducing antioxidant power; HO-1: Heme oxygenase-1; JNK: c-jun N-terminal kinase; MAPKs: mitogen-activated protein kinases; MDA: malondialdehyde; MMP: mitochondrial membrane potential; MTT: 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazoliumbromide; NQO1: NAD(P)H:quinine oxidoreductase 1, Nrf2: nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2; PD: parkinson's disease; PI3K: phosphatidylinositol-3kinase; PVDF: polyvinylidene difluoride; ROS: reactive oxygen species; SOD: Superoxidedismutase; TPTZ: tripydyltriazine.

This study was carried out to evaluate the neuroprotective activity of polysaccharide extracts isolated from Perilla frutescens (PEPF) in H2O2-treated HT22 hippocampus cells. The PEPF treatment was found to increase the anti-oxidant activities of HT22 hippocampus cells. PEPF treatment resulted in a significant protection of HT22 hippocampus cells against H2O2-induced neurotoxicity, this protection ultimately occurred through an inhibition of ROS-mediated intracellular Ca2+ levels leading to MAPKs and NF-κB, as well as the accumulation of PI3K/AKT and Nrf2-mediated HO-1/NQO1 pathways. Furthermore, PEPF not only decreased the expression of Bax, cytochrome c, and cleaved caspases-3, -8, and -9, but also increased the expression of PARP and Bcl-2 in the H2O2-treated HT22 hippocampus cells, which overall contributed to the neuroprotective action. PEPF retains its mitochondrial membrane potential and reduces the elevated levels of sub-G1 phase and apoptotic morphological features induced by H2O2. It also reduces the malondialdehyde levels and enhances the intracellular SOD activity.
