Antioxidants play an important role in maintaining physiological homeostasis. Recent literature emphasises the potential therapeutic effects of natural antioxidants that play anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects applicable in preventing oxidative stress-induced injury, which characterises their pathogenesis. The goal of this study was to evaluate the protective role of EGCG on the HeLa cell line and cancerous cells.
The HeLa cell line and cervical cancer biopsies (CCB) were treated with varying doses of antioxidants to determine their effects. Thereafter, hydrogen peroxide (0-10 nM) - an ROS-generating compound - was co-cultured with varying doses of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). The effect of this compound on superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity was assessed.
The activity of SOD and GPx was protected significantly in the treatment of EGCG in cervical cancer biopsies and HeLa cell line.
It is hypothesised that EGCG has free radical scavenging properties.
EGCG protected the activity SOD and GPx equally in cervical cancer biopsies (CCB) and HeLa cell line.
抗氧化剂在维持生理稳态中发挥重要作用。近期文献强调了天然抗氧化剂的潜在治疗作用,这些抗氧化剂具有抗炎和抗氧化作用,可用于预防氧化应激诱导的损伤,这是其发病机制的特征。本研究的目的是评估表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯(EGCG)对HeLa细胞系和癌细胞的保护作用。
用不同剂量的抗氧化剂处理HeLa细胞系和宫颈癌活检组织(CCB),以确定其效果。此后,将过氧化氢(0 - 10 nM)——一种活性氧生成化合物——与不同剂量的表没食子儿茶素没食子酸酯(EGCG)共同培养。评估该化合物对超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GPx)活性的影响。
在宫颈癌活检组织和HeLa细胞系中,EGCG处理显著保护了SOD和GPx的活性。
假设EGCG具有自由基清除特性。
EGCG在宫颈癌活检组织(CCB)和HeLa细胞系中同样保护了SOD和GPx的活性。
