Dimethyl sulfoxide and oxidative stress on cultures of human keratinocytes.
نویسندگان
چکیده
OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to examine the protective action of the antioxidant dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) against the oxidative stress on keratinocyte cultures caused by glucose deprivation and hypoxia, using the concentration of malonyl dialdehyde existing in the cell culture as an indicator of the oxidative stress level. METHODS EIGHTY FLASKS WITH CULTURED HUMAN KERATINOCYTES IN A CONFLUENT LAYER WERE DIVIDED INTO EIGHT GROUPS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING: culture medium with and without glucose, culture medium with and without the addition of DMSO, culture medium subjected and not subjected to hypoxia, and culture medium with a combination of these factors. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The statistical analysis of the results showed that DMSO proved to be an effective agent against the oxidative stress on cultures of keratinocytes under the experimental conditions studied.

The present study was designed to investigate the protective effect of ethanol extracts from Lindera coreana leaves (LCE) on UVB-induced oxidative stress in HaCaT keratinocytes. The HaCaT cells were pretreated with LCE for 24 h and then exposed to UVB (20 mJ/cm2) for 2 h. UVB significantly decreased the cell viability (p

Background: The memory impairment, obtained from intracerebroventricular (i.c.v.) infusion of streptozotocin (STZ) in rats through activation of oxidative stress, is accepted as sporadic Alzheimer’s disease (AD) model in most experimental studies. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as a solvent is widely used in animal studies to have antioxidant effects as well. However, no report is available ab...
متن کاملAssessment of genotoxicity of pyrethrin in cultured human lymphocytes.
Pyrethrin is an insecticide that is obtained from the Chrysanthemum flower (Pyrethrum). In this study, we examined the genotoxic effects of pyrethrin on cultured human lymphocytes using sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and 8-hydroxy deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) assays. Cultures were treated with different concentrations of pyrethrin (25, 50, and 100 μg/mL), which was dissolved in in dimethyl sulfox...

Objective Reproductive toxicity is a major challenge associated with aluminum (Al) exposure. No studies have evaluated the possible effects of curcumin (CUR) on Al-induced reproductive dysfunction. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of CUR treatment on Al-induced reproductive damage. MaterialsAndMethods In this experimental study, 40 male Wistar rats were allocated to five groups (N...
