extract (SME) possesses neuroprotective potency through its high antioxidant content. We attempted to increase the effectiveness of SME by encapsulating them in chitosan. Neuroprotective potency of SME and SME-loaded chitosan nanoparticles (SME-CNPs) were shown in SH-SY5Y cell line against HO-induced oxidative stress.
We produced CNPs and SME-CNPs by ionic gelation method and properly determined their physical characteristics. Encapsulation efficiency, loading capacity, and release tests were performed for SME-CNPs. The neurotoxicity and neuroprotective efficiency in SH-SY5Y cell line against HO was also investigated.
The size of SME-CNPs was 168.2 ± 11.12 nm with zeta potential 10.6 ± 1.0 mV. The encapsulation efficiency and loading capacity were successfully achieved at 96.6% and 1.89% respectively. SME and SME-CNPs improved cell viability higher than 80%, and SME-CNPs exhibited significant neuroprotective effects against HO damage.
It was concluded that SME and SME-CNPs highly prevent damage caused by HO and reduce cell damage by their neuroprotective effects.
由于具有高抗氧化含量,SME 具有神经保护作用。我们试图通过将其包封在壳聚糖中来提高 SME 的有效性。在 HO 诱导的氧化应激下,我们在 SH-SY5Y 细胞系中显示了 SME 和负载 SME 的壳聚糖纳米颗粒(SME-CNPs)的神经保护作用。
我们通过离子凝胶化法制备 CNPs 和 SME-CNPs,并适当确定了它们的物理特性。对 SME-CNPs 进行了包封效率、载药量和释放测试。还研究了 SME-CNPs 在 SH-SY5Y 细胞系中对 HO 的神经毒性和神经保护效率。
SME-CNPs 的粒径为 168.2±11.12nm,zeta 电位为 10.6±1.0mV。包封效率和载药量分别成功达到 96.6%和 1.89%。SME 和 SME-CNPs 使细胞活力提高了 80%以上,并且 SME-CNPs 对 HO 损伤表现出显著的神经保护作用。
可以得出结论,SME 和 SME-CNPs 通过其神经保护作用,高度预防 HO 引起的损伤并减少细胞损伤。
