Kaempferol Attenuates 2-Deoxy-D-ribose-Induced Oxidative Cell Damage in MC3T3-E1 Osteoblastic Cells

Abstract: Oxidative stress is known to be the major contributing factor for diabetes. The chronic hyperglycemia leads to oxidative stress which is involved in the progression of beta cell deterioration as well as in the development of diabetic complications.1) Osteopenia is also a diabetic complication 2) and it causes an increase in bone fracture and a delay in healing of fracture, and affects the quality of life.3) In vitro studies have shown that oxidative stress inhibits osteoblastic differentiation 4) and induces o… Show more

“…We have shown previously that the antioxidants NAC and ALA protect pancreatic β-cells and MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells against oxidative stress as shown by a reduction in ROS generation and apoptosis. [14][15][16]19,31) These findings indicate that apigenin can function as an antioxidant and thereby protect pancreatic β-cells from dRib-induced oxi- dative cell damage. We used JC-1 staining to assess ΔΨ m, which is a marker of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation activity.…”

“…19) To evaluate the effect of apigenin itself on pancreatic β-cell survival, cells were incubated in RPMI-1640 medium containing 0.5% FBS with increasing concentrations of apigenin (0.01-100 µM) for 24 h and then cell viabilities were determined using the CCK-8 assay. Apigenin at concentrations of 10 µM or lower did not influence cell viability, while higher doses (> 10 µM) were cytotoxic in a dose-dependent manner (Fig.…”

“…Flavonoids are widely found in vegetables and fruits [Gerritsen et al, 1995;Bai et al, 1998], and four of the major subclasses are flavones, flavonols, isoflavones and flavanones [Havsteen, 1983], which have multiple biological and pharmacological activities owing to their anti-oxidant [Suh et al, 2009], anti-inflammatory [Hämäläinen et al, 2007] and estrogenic effects [Dang and Lowik, 2005]. Quercetin exhibits anti-tumor properties, possibly through its ability to stimulate the immune system, induce apoptosis, alter the mitotic cycle, scavenge free radicals, modify gene expression, and block angiogenesis [Hayashi et al, 2000].…”

“…Cell viability was tested using a colorimetric assay based on the uptake of MTT by viable cells (20). In brief, a solution of MTT (0.5 mg/ml) was added to the cells followed by incubation at 37˚C to form blue formazan crystals.…”
