Biologically Active Constituents from Salix viminalis Bio-Oil and Their Protective Activity Against Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Oxidative Stress in Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
The protective antioxidative effect of the phenolic extract (PE) isolated from Salix viminalis pyrolysis derived bio-oil was shown in vitro on the Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells exposed to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Cells pretreated with 0.05 μg/ml PE after exposure to different concentrations of H2O2 (300-900 μM) showed up to 25 % higher viability than the unpretreated ones. The antioxidative effect of PE was also observed in a time-dependent manner. The results were confirmed by visual examination of the specimens using microscopy. Finally, superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity modulation was shown by SOD assay, designed to determine the activity of enzymes removing free radicals.

BACKGROUND Isoflavones are biologically active compounds that occur naturally in a variety of plants, with relatively high levels in soybean. Tectorigenin, an isoflavone, protects against hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced cell damage. However, the underlying mechanism is unknown. METHODS The MTT assay was performed to determine cell viability. Catalase activity was assessed by determining the ...

متن کاملApurinic endonuclease (Ref-1) is induced in mammalian cells by oxidative stress and involved in clastogenic adaptation.
Apurinic endonuclease (APE; also known as Ref-1 protein) is a key enzyme in base excision repair, cleaving apurinic sites that arise spontaneously because of the activity of DNA glycosylases. To address the question of whether APE can be modulated by genotoxic stress affecting cellular protection, we analyzed the expression of APE in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells after treatment with variou...
