Neuroinflammation plays important roles in the pathogenesis and progression of altered neurodevelopment, sensorineural hearing loss, and certain neurodegenerative diseases. Hyperoside (quercetin-3-O--D-galactoside) is an active compound isolated from Hypericum plants. In this study, we investigate the protective effect of hyperoside on neuroinflammation and its possible molecular mechanism. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and hyperoside were used to treat HT22 cells. The cell viability was measured by MTT assay. The cell apoptosis rate was measured by flow cytometry assay. The mRNA expression levels of interleukin-1 (IL-1), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) were determined by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The levels of oxidative stress indices superoxide dismutase (SOD), reactive oxygen species (ROS), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were measured by the kits. The expression of neurotrophic factor and the relationship among hyperoside, silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog-1 (SIRT1) and Wnt/-catenin, and sonic hedgehog was examined by western blotting. In the LPS-induced HT22 cells, hyperoside promotes cell survival; alleviates the level of IL-1, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-, ROS, MDA, Bax, and caspase-3; and increases the expression of CAT, SOD, GSH, Bcl-2, BDNF, TrkB, and NGF. In addition, hyperoside upregulated the expression of SIRT1. Further mechanistic investigation showed that hyperoside alleviated LPS-induced inflammation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis by upregulating SIRT1 to activate Wnt/-catenin and sonic hedgehog pathways. Taken together, our data suggested that hyperoside acts as a protector in neuroinflammation.
神经炎症在神经发育改变、感觉神经性听力损失和某些神经退行性疾病的发病机制和进展中发挥重要作用。金丝桃苷(槲皮素-3-O--D-半乳糖苷)是从金丝桃属植物中分离得到的一种活性化合物。在这项研究中,我们研究了金丝桃苷对神经炎症的保护作用及其可能的分子机制。脂多糖(LPS)和金丝桃苷用于处理 HT22 细胞。通过 MTT 测定法测量细胞活力。通过流式细胞术测定法测量细胞凋亡率。通过定量逆转录聚合酶链反应测定白细胞介素-1(IL-1)、白细胞介素-6(IL-6)、白细胞介素-8(IL-8)和肿瘤坏死因子-(TNF-)的 mRNA 表达水平。通过试剂盒测量氧化应激指标超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、活性氧(ROS)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、谷胱甘肽(GSH)和丙二醛(MDA)的水平。通过 Western blot 检测神经营养因子的表达以及金丝桃苷与沉默交配型信息调节 2 同源物-1(SIRT1)和 Wnt/-连环蛋白和 sonic hedgehog 之间的关系。在 LPS 诱导的 HT22 细胞中,金丝桃苷促进细胞存活;减轻 IL-1、IL-6、IL-8、TNF-、ROS、MDA、Bax 和 caspase-3 的水平;并增加 CAT、SOD、GSH、Bcl-2、BDNF、TrkB 和 NGF 的表达。此外,金丝桃苷上调了 SIRT1 的表达。进一步的机制研究表明,金丝桃苷通过上调 SIRT1 激活 Wnt/-连环蛋白和 sonic hedgehog 通路来减轻 LPS 诱导的炎症、氧化应激和细胞凋亡。总之,我们的数据表明,金丝桃苷在神经炎症中起保护作用。
