background and aims:in neurodegenerative disorders,oxidative stress mediated by reactive oxygen species is strongly associated with increased neuronal damages which can lead to apoptosis. pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic gene expressions are changed during the cell differentiation that affect cell viability and differentiation. therefore, this study was conducted to determine the effects of hyd...

objective(s):hypoxia induces cellular oxidative stress that is associated with neurodegenerative diseases. here, the protective effects of ferulic acid (fa) on hypoxia-induced neurotoxicity in pc12 cells were evaluated. materials and methods:we investigated the effect of fa on pc12 cells subjected to hypoxia stress, in vitro. results:fa increased cell viability, prevented membrane damage (ldh r...

Cell damage induced by free radicals has been implicated as causal factor in a wide variety of human diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders. Scientific recognition of natural antioxidants may be helpful in preventing many diseases. Aqueous Date fruit extract (ADFE)- PC12 cell line. ADFE at concentrations of 0.1-10% containing 0.005% H2O2 and H2O2 at concentrations of 0.01-1% conta...

Objective(s): Recent studies revealed that microRNAs (miRNAs) may play crucial roles in the responses and pathologic processes of spinal cord injury (SCI). This study aimed to investigate the effect and the molecular basis of miR-103 on LPS-induced injuries in PC12 cells in vitro and SCI rats in vivo. Materials and Methods: PC12 cells were exposed to LPS to induce cell injuries to mimic the in ...

Objective(s): According to recent studies, valproate shows some protection against oxidative stress (OS) induced by neurotoxins. Current investigation tried to determine the possible ameliorating effects of sodium valproate (SV) against aluminum (Al)-induced cell death, apoptosis, mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and OS in PC12 cells.Materials ...

objective(s): this study was designed to indicate whether different fractions from artemisia biennis hydroethanolic extract could provide cytoprotection against oxidative stress and apoptosis induced by doxorubicin (dox) in rat pheochromocytoma cell line (pc12). material and methods:cell viability was determined by mtt assay. also, activation of caspase-3 and superoxide dismutase were evaluated...

the protective effect of a l-type calcium channel blocker, nimodipine, on cell injury induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (ogd) in pc12 cells was investigated. pc12 cells were exposed to in-vitro oxygen-glucose deprivation (30 minutes and 60 minutes respectively) in the presence or absence of nimodipine (10mm/l) in three different time schedules (pre-24h, pre-3h and concurrently). cellular vi...
