摘要:Although 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) is currently used as an anti-cancer chemotherapy, adverse effects such as oral mucositis potentially limit its clinical application. Additionally, the prevention of 5-FU-induced side effects are scarce. Resveratrol is known to decrease oxidative damage and inflammation. In this study, we examined the protective effects of resveratrol on 5-FU-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory responses in normal human keratinocytes (HaCaT cell) as
in vitro oral mucositis model. HaCaT cells were exposed to 5-FU and simultaneously treated with resveratrol.
The effects of resveratrol on 5-FU-induced cytotoxicity were evaluated using cell viability assay. The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured using a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The effects of resveratrol on nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), silent information regulator transcript-1 (SIRT-1), and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling and inflammatory cytokine expression were examined. Resveratrol suppressed 5-FU-induced overproduction of ROS by upregulating anti-oxidant defense genes through Nrf2 activation and SIRT-1 expression. Concerning inflammatory responses, resveratrol suppressed the 5-FU-induced expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines via NF-κB nuclear translocation. Conversely,
N-acetylcysteine reduced ROS levels without affecting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Resveratrol might be useful for preventing 5-FU-induced adverse effects by activating anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory responses.
