摘要

To examine the effects of the combination of quercetin (Q)

cinnamaldehyde (C) and hirudin (H)

a Chinese medicine formula on high glucose (HG)-induced apoptosis of cultured dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons. DRG neurons exposed to HG (45 mmol/L) for 24 h were employed as an in vitro model of diabetic neuropathy. Cell viability

reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and apoptosis were determined. The expression of nuclear factor of Kappa B (NF-κB)

inhibitory kappa Bα(IκBα)

phosphorylated IκBα and Nf-E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) were examined using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and Western blot assay. The expression of hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1)

interleukin-6 (IL-6)

tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) and caspase-3 were also examined by RT-PCR and Western blot assay. HG treatment markedly increased DRG neuron apoptosis via increasing intracellular ROS level and activating the NF-κB signaling pathway (P<0.05). Co-treatment with Q

H and their combination decreased HG-induced caspase-3 activation and apoptosis (P<0.05 or P<0.01). The expressions of NF-κB

IL-6 and TNF-α were down-regulated

and Nrf2/HO-1 expression was up-regulated (P<0.05 or P<0.01). QCH has better effect in scavenging ROS

activating Nrf-2/HO-1

and down-regulating the NF-κB pathway than other treatment group. DRG neurons' apoptosis was increased in diabetic conditions

which was reduced by QCH formula treatment. The possible reason could be activating Nrf-2/HO-1 pathway

scavenging ROS

and inhibition of NF-κB activation. The effect of QCH combination was better than each monomer or the combination of the two monomers.
