ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the protective effect of baicalein on injured PC12 cell induced by Aβ and explore its mechanism.Methods:The method of MTT was used to detect the cell activity of each group and screened the concentration of baicalein. The PC12 cells were randomly divided into the blank group, the Aβ group, the baicalin group and the estradiol group. 24 hours after inoculation, baicalein group was intervened with 1×10 -6 mol/L baicalein solution, and estradiol group was intervened with 1×10 -5 mol/L estradiol solution. Two hours later, except the blank group, the other groups were added with 1.5×10 -4 mol/L Aβ to make the model. MTT assay was used to detect the cell viability of each group after 24 hours of cultivation. Then used oxidation kit to detect the contents of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in each group. And the level of caspase-3 mRNA was detected by Real-time Quantitative PCR (RT-PCR). Then the Western blot method was used to detect the expressions of p-PI3K, p-AKT and caspase-3. Results:Compared with the Aβ group, the PC12 cell viability [(96.348 ± 0.571)%, (97.183 ± 0.714)% vs. (86.922 ± 0.429)%] in the baicalin group and the estradiol group significantly increased( P<0.01). The activities of SOD [(54.31 ± 1.34) U/mgprot, (57.38 ± 2.25) U/mgprot vs. (36.18 ± 2.24) U/mgprot] and GSH-PX [(4.46 ± 0.23) U/mgprot, (4.72 ± 0.31) U/mgprot vs. (2.05 ± 0.37) U/mgprot] significantly increased, and the level of LDH [(85.43 ± 0.92) nmol/ml, (82.46 ± 0.27) nmol/ml vs. (99.17 ± 0.52) nmol/ml] significantly decreased ( P<0.01). The expression of caspase-3 mRNA (2.24 ± 0.64, 2.33 ± 0.75 vs. 3.46 ± 0.46) and p-PI3K (0.46 ± 0.03, 0.44 ± 0.06 vs. 0.66 ± 0.09), p-AKT (0.43 ± 0.05, 0.41 ± 0.02 vs. 0.58 ± 0.03), caspase-3 (0.61 ± 0.03, 0.56 ± 0.53 vs. 0.92 ± 0.07) protein significantly decreased ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Baicalein could slow down cell apoptosis and oxidative reaction, reduce the damage of Aβ to PC12 cells by inhibiting the expression of PI3K/AKT pathway.
