摘要
目的:探讨槲皮素对鱼藤酮诱导的PC12细胞凋亡的影响及其作用机制。方法:运用鱼藤酮诱导损伤PC12细胞,经300μmol/L槲皮素预处理后,观察细胞形态学改变,流式细胞术检测细胞凋亡率,Western blot-ting检测Bax和Bcl-2蛋白的表达,JC-1染色检测细胞线粒体膜电位,比较各组的差异。结果:与鱼藤酮组相比,槲皮素加鱼藤酮处理组细胞形态明显改善,凋亡率降至6.3%(P<0.01),Bcl-2表达增加(P<0.01),Bax表达降低(P<0.01),线粒体膜电位上升(P<0.01)。结论:槲皮素对鱼藤酮诱导的PC12细胞凋亡具有抑制作用,上调Bcl-2和下调Bax蛋白的表达,维持线粒体膜电位可能是其作用的机制之一。
AIM:To observe the effects and mechanisms of quercetin on the apoptosis of PC12 cells induced by rotenone.METHODS:PC12 cells were used in the study.Quercetin at the concentration of 300 μmol/L was added into the PC12 cells cultured in DMEM-F12 medium with 10% fetal calf serum.The morphological changes of the cells were observed under fluorescence microscope.The apoptotic rate was determined by flow cytometry assay.The protein levels of Bax and Bcl-2 were determined by Western blotting,and the mitochondrial membrane potential was measured by ratiometric probe JC-1.RESULTS:In the cells treated with rotenone+quercetin,the morphology of the cells was significantly improved,and the apoptotic rate was decreased to 6.7%,significantly lower than that in the cells treated with rotenone alone(P〈0.01).The expression of Bcl-2 was up-regulated and Bax was down-regulated in rotenone+quercetin group(P〈0.01),while the mitochondrial membrane potential was also increased(P〈0.01) as compared to those in rotenone group.CONCLUSION:Pretreatment of quercetin inhibits the development of apoptosis in PC12 cells induced by rotenone.One of the mechanisms may be correlated with up-regulating the expression of Bcl-2 and down-regulating the expression of Bax,thus maintaining mitochondrial membrane potential.
