摘要
Thioredoxin (TRX) is a redox-active protein which plays a cytoprotective role against oxidative stress. Geranylgeranylacetone (GGA), used widely as an anti-ulcer drug, has been reported to induce TRX as well as heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) in hepatocytes and other cells. 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), causes dopaminergic denervation and Parkinsonism in humans. The 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion (MPP+), an active metabolite of MPTP, induces cell death in a rat pheochromocytoma cell line (PC12 cells). We found that MPP+ suppresses TRX expression in PC12 cells. Overexpression or administration of TRX attenuates MPP+-induced neurotoxicity on PC12 cells. Moreover, GGA induces expression of TRX and HSP70 and attenuates MPP+-induced toxicity in PC12 cells. These results indicate that TRX and GGA have a possible potential as new therapeutic agents for Parkinson disease. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
