Bark extracts of these plants (1 and 25 g/mL) were added 3 hours before coincubating H9c2 cardiomyoblasts with Dox (0.5 and 1 M) for 24 hours more. We measured cell mass and metabolic viability, mitochondrial transmembrane potential, superoxide anion content, and activity-like of caspase-3 and caspase-9 following treatment with the extracts and/or Dox. Also, selenium and vitamin C contents were measured in the plant extracts.
The results confirmed that Dox treatment decreased cell mass, mitochondrial membrane potential and metabolic viability, increased mitochondrial superoxide anion, and stimulated caspase-3 and caspase-9-like activities. Pretreatment of the cells with the plant extracts significantly inhibited Dox cytotoxicity, with more significant results at the higher concentration. Measurements of selenium and vitamin C in the extracts revealed higher concentration of both when compared with other Cameroonian spices.
Both extracts of and were effective against Dox-induced cytotoxicity, most likely due to their content in antioxidants.
在将H9c2心肌母细胞与阿霉素(0.5和1μM)共同孵育24小时之前3小时,添加这些植物的树皮提取物(1和25 g/mL)。在用提取物和/或阿霉素处理后,我们测量了细胞质量和代谢活力、线粒体跨膜电位、超氧阴离子含量以及半胱天冬酶-3和半胱天冬酶-9样活性。此外,还测量了植物提取物中的硒和维生素C含量。
结果证实,阿霉素处理降低了细胞质量、线粒体膜电位和代谢活力,增加了线粒体超氧阴离子,并刺激了半胱天冬酶-3和半胱天冬酶-9样活性。用植物提取物对细胞进行预处理可显著抑制阿霉素的细胞毒性,在较高浓度时效果更显著。提取物中硒和维生素C的测量结果显示,与其他喀麦隆香料相比,两者的浓度都更高。
两种植物的提取物均对阿霉素诱导的细胞毒性有效,最可能是由于其抗氧化剂含量。
