Abstract
In this paper, the effects of resveratrol on the viability, morphology, biomechanics and bioelectricity of SH-SY5Y cells were studied by atomic force microscopy. MTT assay showed that resveratrol had a dose effect on SH-SY5Y cells, and its activity was related to drug concentration and drug action time. With the increase of resveratrol concentration or the extension of action time, the activity of SH-SY5Y cells decreased obviously. Atomic force microscope (AFM) was employed to quantitatively analyze the physical changes of cells. AFM study shows that resveratrol can transform SH-SY5Y cells from spindle to sphere, and increase the cell height and decrease the cell adhesion. Also, the elastic modulus increases under the action of low concentration of resveratrol decreases under the action of high concentration of resveratrol, and the electric signal decreases. This study reveals the impact of resveratrol on SH-SY5Y cells from the biological and biophysical perspectives, which is helpful for a more comprehensive understanding of the interaction mechanism between resveratrol and SH-SY5Y cells. These techniques have potential applications in evaluating the effects of chemical substances on cells and screening targeted drugs.
