Résumé
Oxidative stress has been recently considered as a mediator of nerve cell death in several neurodegenerative diseases. We studied the effect of the parkinsonism-inducing toxine 1-methyl-4-phenyl-pyridine (MPP+) on several parameters of cell distress using native and neuronal PC12 cells. Then, since estrogens have been reported to prevent neuronal degeneration caused by oxidative damage, we investigated the ability of 17beta- estradiol (E2); two Ginkgo biloba extracts, EGb 761 and Cp 202; as well as two flavonoids, quercetin and kaempferol, to rescue PC12 cells submitted to MPP+- induced oxidative stress. Our results consistently show that both Ginkgo biloba extracts could prevent cell death in native and neuronal PC12 cells, while in neuronal PC12 cells also quercetin and E2 could reverse MPP+ neurotoxic effet. Western blot analysis demonstrated that MPP+ injuries might modulate dopamine transporter (DAT) protein expression but not estrogen receptor beta (ERbeta) protein expression. EGb 761 and Cp 202 also modulate DAT and ERbeta protein expression in neuronal cells. From these studies, we outline the importance of testing estrogen-like plant-derived molecules as potent antioxidants and examine their effect on protein expression.
