Protective effect of the octadecaneuropeptide on hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress and cell death in cultured rat astrocytes

Résumé

Oxidative stress, resulting from accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), plays a critical role on astrocyte death associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Astroglial cells produce endozepines, a family of biologically active peptides that have been implicated in cell protection. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the potential protective effect of one of the endozepines, the octadecaneuropeptide ODN, on hydrogen peroxide (H(2) O(2) )-induced oxidative stress and cell death in rat astrocytes. Incubation of cultured astrocytes with graded concentrations of H(2) O(2) for 1 h provoked a dose-dependent reduction of the number of living cells as evaluated by lactate dehydrogenase assay. The cytotoxic effect of H(2) O(2) was associated with morphological modifications that were characteristic of apoptotic cell death. H(2) O(2) -treated cells exhibited high level of ROS associated with a reduction of both superoxide dismutases (SOD) and catalase activities. Pre-treatment of astrocytes with low concentrations of ODN dose-dependently prevented cell death induced by H(2) O(2) . This effect was accompanied by a marked attenuation of ROS accumulation, reduction of mitochondrial membrane potential and activation of caspase 3 activity. ODN stimulated SOD and catalase activities in a concentration-dependent manner, and blocked H(2) O(2) -evoked inhibition of SOD and catalase activities. Blockers of SOD and catalase suppressed the effect of ODN on cell survival. Taken together, these data demonstrate for the first time that ODN is a potent protective agent that prevents oxidative stress-induced apoptotic cell death.
