Aim & Objectives: Curcuminoids are characteristic constituents in Curcuma, displaying obviously neuroprotective activities against oxidative stress. As one of the Traditional Chinese Medicines from Curcuma, the radix of Curcuma aromatica is also rich in those chemicals, but its neuroprotective activity and mechanism remain unknown. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of extracts from the radix of C. aromatica (ECAs) on H2O2-damaged PC12 cells. Material and Methods: The model of oxidative stress damage was established by treatment of 400 µM H2O2 on PC12 to induce cell damage. After the treatment of ECWs for 24 h, the cell viability, LDH, SOD, CAT and GSH were measured to evaluate the neuroprotection of ECAs on that model. The potential action mechanism was studied by measurement of level of ROS, cell apoptosis rate, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), morphologic change, the intracellular Ca2+ content (F340/F380) and the expressions of Bcl-2, Bax and Caspase-3. Additionally, the constituents from tested extracts were analyzed by HPLC-DAD-Q-TOF-MS method. Results: Compared with a positive control, Vitamin E, 10 µg/ml of 95% EtOH extract (HCECA) and 75% EtOH extract (MCECA) can markedly increase the rate of cell survival and enhance the antioxidant enzyme activities of SOD, CAT, increase the levels of GSH, decrease LDH release and the level of ROS, attenuate the intracellular Ca2+ overloading, reduce the cell apoptotic rate and stabilize MMP, down-regulate Bcl-2 expression, up-regulate Bax and caspase-3 expression, and improve the change of cell morphology. The chemical analysis showed that diarylheptanoids and sesquiterpenoids are the major chemicals in tested extracts and the former were richer in HCECA and MCECA than others. Conclusions: These findings indicated that the effects of HCECA and MCECA on inhibiting the cells damage induced by H2O2 in PC12 are better than other extracts from the radix of C. aromatica, and the active constituents with neuroprotective effects consisting in those two active extracts are diarylheptanoids.

Oxidative stress is regarded as a mediator of nerve cell death in several neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's disease. Sesamin, a lignan mainly found in sesame oil, is currently under study for its anti-oxidative and possible neuroprotective properties. We used 1-methyl-4-phenyl-pyridine (MPP+) ion, the active metabolite of the potent parkinsonism-causing toxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine, to produce oxidative stress and neurodegeneration in neuronal PC12 cells, which express dopamine, as well as neurofilaments. Our results show that picomolar doses of sesamin protected neuronal PC12 cells from MPP+-induced cellular death, as revealed by colorimetric measurements and production of reactive oxygen species. We also demonstrated that sesamin acted by rescuing tyrosine hydroxylase levels from MPP+-induced depletion. Sesamin, however, did not modulate dopamine transporter levels, and estrogen receptor-alpha and -beta protein expression. By examining several parameters of cell distress, we found that sesamin also elicited a strong increase in superoxide dismutase activity as well as protein expression and decreased catalase activity and the MPP+stimulated inducible nitric oxide synthase protein expression, in neuronal PC12 cells. Finally, sesamin possessed significant anti-inflammatory properties, as disclosed by its potential to reduce MPP+-induced interleukin-6 mRNA levels in microglia. From these studies, we determined the importance of the lignan sesamin as a neuroprotective molecule and its possible role in complementary and/or preventive therapies of neurodegenerative diseases.

Background and Objectives: Beta-amyloid (Aβ) has pivotal functions in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD). The main purpose of this study is to explore the protective role and possible mechanisms of matrine against Aβ25–35-induced neurotoxicity in PC12 cells. Materials and Methods: A vitro model that involved Aβ25–35-induced neuronal damage in PC12 cells was adopted in the present study. Cell viability and apoptosis of PC12 cells were determined by CCK-8 assay and TUNEL staining, respectively. Intracellular ROS levels were determined by DCFH-DA probe and levels of TNFα, IL-6 and IL-1β were assessed by ELISA assay. In addition, telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) levels were determined by ELISA assay and telomere lengths were examined by real-time quantitative PCR analysis to assess telomerase activities. Furthermore, vital proteins related to cell apoptosis and hallmarks of senescence were detected by western blot analysis. Results: Matrine (10, 20, 50 μg/ml) dose-dependently protected cell viability against Aβ25–35 cytotoxicity in PC12 cells. Meanwhile, matrine at 10, 20, 50 μg/ml markedly reduced ROS production and downregulated the levels of TNFα, IL-6 and IL-1β in Aβ25–35-injuried PC12 cells. The results also proved that matrine may restore telomerase activities and telomere lengths in Aβ25–35-injuried PC12 cells by inhibiting inflammatory responses and oxidative stress. Neuronal apoptosis induced by Aβ25–35 were reversed upon cotreatment with matrine. Moreover, matrine markedly mitigated Aβ25–35 induced cell senescence in a concentration-dependentmanner. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated that matrine protected PC12 cells against Aβ25–35-induced cytotoxicity, oxidative stress, inflammation, neuronal apoptosis and cell senescence.

Abstract Background: Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and following reperfusion therapy-induced cerebral ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury have been recognized as an important subject of cerebrovascular disease with high mortality. Oxidative stress is an important pathological process of cerebral I/R injury. microRNA-19a (miR-19a) is involved in I/R. As the organ protectant agent, Shenmai Injection (SMI) is widely used in the clinical treatment of cerebral infarction. Purpose: This study aims to explore whether SMI can reduce oxidative stress by regulating miR-19a, thereby treating I/R injury. Methods: The oxidative stress state of PC12 cells was induced by H2O2, and then the cells were cultured with SMI. The therapeutic effect of SMI was evaluated by detecting cellular superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA) and other oxidative markers with the kit. Western blot, PCR, immunofluorescence and other techniques were used to elucidate the potential mechanism of SMI. Results: Cell viability assay results showed that SMI could improve the viability of PC12 cells stimulated by H2O2. Compared with the H2O2 group, after SMI treatment, the contents of MDA and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were significantly reduced, while the activity of SOD was significantly increased, and SMI could reduce apoptosis by increasing the content of adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) in cells and enhancing the mitochondrial membrane potential (∆Ψm). Western blot and qRT-PCR results showed that these effects were partially achieved through the AMPK/Sirt1/PGC-1α pathway. The level of miR-19a was significantly increased in H2O2 group, and SMI could protect the cells by reducing miR-19a. Further investigated the target of miR-19a, and transfected cells with miR-19a mimic and inhibitor respectively. We found that AdipoR2 was a direct target of miR-19a, and miR-19a could inhibit AdipoR2/PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway. Conclusion:SMI can activate AMPK/Sirt1/PGC-1α and AdipoR2/PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathways by reducing miR-19a levels, and protect PC12 cells stimulated by H2O2.
