Abstract:

OBJCTIVE To investigate the protective effect of ferulic acid (FA) on lIPopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced damage to PC12 cells and hIPpocampal neurons in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and its potential mechanisms. METHODS 1 in vitro study: PC12 cells were pretreated with FA 2.5- 40 μmol • L-1 for 12 h and treated with LPS for another 8 h. CCK-8 kit was used to test PC12 cell viability. Inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-IP(IL-IP) were detected by ELISA kits. Laser scanning confocal microscopy was performed to measure F-actin expression in the cells. (2) in vivo study: FA 25, 50 and 100 mg•kg-1 was IP given to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats once a day for 35 d, and from the 29th day, IP co-administered with LPS (0.2 mg • kg-1) for 7 d. Immunohistochemistry method was used to determine protein expression of phophodiestera 4B (PDE4B) in the hIPpocampus of rats. The protein expression of cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) and phospho CREB (p-CREB) was determined by Western blotting. RESULTS In the in vitro study, compared with LPS group, cell viability was significantly increased in FA 10, 20 and 40 μmolL-1 groups (P<0.05), while the production of inflammatory cytokines TNF-α and IL-1(3 decreased (P<0.05). The structure and distribution of cytoskeletal protein F-actin were ameliorated markedly in PC12 cells. In the in vivo study, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining showed that pretreatment with FA (50 and 100 mg • kg-1) alleviated the damage to the hIPpocampus induced by LPS in SD rats. Immunohistochemistry showed that FA (50 and 100 mg-kg-1) pretreatment effectively prevented LPS-induced up-regulation of PDE4B expression in the hIPpocampus of rats (P<0.05). Western blotting analysis showed that the inhibitory effects on the protein expressions of CREB and p-CREB induced by LPS were altered by FA (50 and 100 mg• kg-1) pretreatment(P<0.05). CONCLUSION FA can protect against LPS induced damage to PC12 cells and hIPpocampal neurons of rats. The resistant effect on neuron-inflammation of FA may be conferred by inhibiting LPS-induced up-regulation of PDE4B and stimulating signaling pathways of cAMP/CREB.
