Abstract

Currently, the important role of oxidative stress in the aging process and in neurodegenerative diseases has been highlighted, suggesting the beneficial effect of antioxidants as adjuvant therapy. Resveratrol (RSV) is a polyphenolic compound used in the clinic and has been shown as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Therefore, the objective was to verify neuroprotective and modulating effects of RSV on N2-A cells, pre or post inserted into an oxidative stress environment. For this, two treatment conditions were established: pre-stimulus and post-stimulus. The analysis of AMPK and SIRT1 cell signaling pathways was performed through the chemiluminescence assay using the dorsomorphin and EX527 inhibitors, respectively. The inflammatory profile was also evaluated in these neural cells, through the levels of IL-6, TNF, and IL-10. We observed that RSV in N2-A cells has anti-inflammatory effect and antioxidant property and it mechanism is dependent on the SIRT1 signaling pathway. RSV effects occurs most markedly when cells have been pre-stimulated before inducing an oxidative stress environment. These results are important for conducting more adequate protocols in the medical and nutritional clinic.
