Abstract

The main objective of this study was to examine the potential neuroprotective
properties of venlafaxine, an antidepressant belonging to the serotonin-norepinephrine
reuptake inhibitor class. Furthermore, it provides a novel insight into
how venlafaxine might interact with peroxiredoxin-3 and -5 enzymes (PRDX-3
and PRDX-5), pivotal cellular antioxidant defence system components. For this
purpose, human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) were pretreated with venlafaxine
(0-100 μM) for 12 h, followed by a 4 h LPS exposure (1 μg/mL) to induce
oxidative stress. Cell viability was determined by MTT assay, and ROS generation
was assessed by DCFH-DA assay. Protein and mRNA expression levels of
PRDX-3 and PRDX-5 were determined by immunoblotting and qRT-PCR, respectively.
Based on the results obtained, it was found that the venlafaxine pretreatment
led to a notable reduction in intracellular ROS accumulation induced
by LPS when compared to the control group (p< 0.05). In the same manner, it
was observed that venlafaxine pre-treatment altered LPS-induced PRDX-3 and
PRDX-5 expression in neuronal cells (p< 0.05). Our findings indicate the involvement
of multifunctional PRDX-3 and PRDX-5 enzymes in the antioxidant
effect of venlafaxine and suggest that further investigations into this pathway
could provide valuable therapeutic contributions.

SHSY-5Y Nöronlarında LPS ile İndüklenen Oksidatif Stres Artışında Antidepresan Venlafaksin'in Peroksiredoksin-3 ve Peroksiredoksin-5 Ekspresyonları Üzerindeki Etkileri

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, serotonin-norepinefrin geri alım inhibitörü bir antidepresan olan venlafaksinin potansiyel nöroprotektif özelliklerini incelemektir. Ayrıca, venlafaksinin hücresel antioksidan savunma sisteminin önemli bileşenleri olan peroksirodoksin-3 ve -5 (PRDX-3 and PRDX-5) enzimleriyle olası etkileşimine dair yeni bir bakış açısı sunmaktadır. Bu amaçla, insan nöroblastoma (SHSY-5Y) hücreleri, 12 saat venlafaksin (0-100 µM) ile muamele edildikten sonra oksidatif stresi indüklemek için 4 saat LPS (1 µg/mL) ile inkübe edildiler. Hücre canlılığı MTT testi ile belirlendi ve ROS oluşumu DCFH-DA testi ile değerlendirildi. PRDX-3 ve PRDX-5 protein ve mRNA ifade seviyeleri sırasıyla immunoblotlama ve RT-PCR ile belirlendi. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, hücrelerde kontrol grubuna göre venlafaksin uygulamasın LPS ile indüklenen hücresel ROT birikiminde belirgin bir azalmaya yol açtığı tespit edilmiştir (p <0.05). Benzer olarak, venlafaksin ön işlemi, nöronal hücrelerde LPS tarafından indüklenen PRDX-3 ve PRDX-5 ifadesini değiştirdiği gözlenmiştir (p <0.05). Elde edilen bu bulgular, venlafaksinin antioksidan etkisinde multifonksiyonel PRDX-3 ve PRDX-5 enzimlerinin rol oynadığına işaret etmekte olup bu yolak ile ilişkili yapılacak ileri çalışmaların önemli terapötik katkılarda bulunabileceğini düşündürmektedir.
