Tusskorn, Ornanong published the artcileBorassus flabellifer L. crude male flower extracts alleviate cisplatin-induced oxidative stress in rat kidney cells, Application of 2′,7′-Dichloro-3-oxo-3H-spiro[isobenzofuran-1,9′-xanthene]-3′,6′-diyl diacetate, the main research area is Borassus flabellifer cisplatin oxidative stress kidney cell.
To investigate the effects of Borassus flabellifer L. extracts on antioxidant activity, maintenance of cellular redox, and mitochondrial function in cisplatin-induced kidney injury. The extracts of Borassus flabellifer were obtained from crude male flowers using Et acetate and methanol. The antioxidant potential was evaluated by 2,2-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl, and ferric reducing antioxidant power, and total phenolic content was also determined Cytoprotective activity of Et acetate and methanolic extracts was assessed after kidney cells were treated with cisplatin. Oxidative stress was determined by glutathione (GSH) assay, and formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and changes in mitochondrial transmembrane potential (ΔΨm) using 2″”,7″”-dichlorofluorescin diacetate and JC-10 assays, resp. Borassus flabellifer methanolic extract exhibited greater antioxidant activity than the Et acetate extract Cytoprotective effect was demonstrated in both extracts, particularly in the Et acetate extract The extracts showed protection against the cytotoxic effect of cisplatin by prevention of the increased GSSG and declined GSH/GSSG ratio. Both extracts also prevented the increase in ROS formation, and loss of ΔΨm. Both Borassus flabellifer extracts show antioxidant activity and cytoprotective effect against cisplatin-induced cytotoxicity of NRK-52E cells by preventing oxidative stress and maintenance of GSH redox status. Borassus flabellifer extracts may possess beneficial effects on the prevention of oxidative stressinduced cell injury.
