Esculetin modulates cytotoxicity induced by oxidants in NB4 human leukemia cells.
Experimental and Toxicologic Pathology : Official Journal of the Gesellschaft Für Toxikologische Pathologie 2017 October 3
Esculetin is a polyphenolic compound with cytoprotective properties. We previously demonstrated the induction of apoptosis by esculetin in NB4 human leukemia cells, as a model, by a mechanism not well understood. To analyse the antioxidant activity of esculetin on apoptosis, we have studied the influence of co-treatments of esculetin at a concentration of 100μM with exogenous ROS donors, namely tert-butyl-hydroperoxide and hydrogen peroxide, on NB4 cells. Esculetin (100μM) exerts a protective effect on cell viability and death necrosis or late apoptosis caused by the oxidant t-BHP whereas it potentiates decrease of cell viability and cell death caused by H2 O2 . In the first case, the O2 - scavenging activity of esculetin (100μM) could be implicated. In the last one, cytotoxicity by apoptosis induction seems to be related to the increase in O2 - , among other possible mechanisms. These results contribute to the study of the antitumor properties of esculetin by regulation of redox balance in leukemia cells.
