The effects of catalpalactone on dopamine biosynthesis and L-DOPA-induced cytotoxicity in PC12 cells were investigated. Catalpalactone at 5-30μM decreased intracellular dopamine content with the IC(50) value of 22.1μM. Catalpalactone at 5-20μM, but not 30μM, did not alter cell viability. Catalpalactone at 20μM inhibited tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and aromatic-l-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) activities. Catalpalactone also decreased cyclic AMP levels and inhibited TH phosphorylation. In addition, catalpalactone at 20μM reduced the increases in dopamine levels induced by L-DOPA (20-50μM). Catalpalactone (5-30μM) associated with L-DOPA (50-100μM) enhanced L-DOPA-induced cytotoxicity at 48h, which was prevented by N-acetyl-l-cysteine. These results suggest that catalpalactone inhibited dopamine biosynthesis by reducing TH and AADC activities and enhanced L-DOPA-induced cytotoxiciy in PC12 cells.
研究了梓醇内酯对 PC12 细胞中多巴胺生物合成和 L-DOPA 诱导的细胞毒性的影响。梓醇内酯在 5-30μM 浓度下降低细胞内多巴胺含量,IC50 值为 22.1μM。梓醇内酯在 5-20μM 浓度下,但在 30μM 浓度下不改变细胞活力。梓醇内酯在 20μM 浓度下抑制酪氨酸羟化酶(TH)和芳香族-l-氨基酸脱羧酶(AADC)的活性。梓醇内酯还降低 cAMP 水平并抑制 TH 磷酸化。此外,梓醇内酯在 20μM 浓度下降低了 L-DOPA(20-50μM)诱导的多巴胺水平增加。梓醇内酯(5-30μM)与 L-DOPA(50-100μM)联合使用在 48 小时时增强了 L-DOPA 诱导的细胞毒性,这可以被 N-乙酰-l-半胱氨酸所预防。这些结果表明,梓醇内酯通过降低 TH 和 AADC 的活性抑制多巴胺生物合成,并增强 PC12 细胞中 L-DOPA 诱导的细胞毒性。
