Abstract

Aim: In this study, the effects of Myrtus communis L. essential oil on the human bronchial epithelial cell line (BEAS-2B) exposed to oxidative stress with hydrogen peroxide were investigated and their effects on apoptotic pathways.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, Myrtus communis L. esansiyel yağının, in vitro olarak hidrojen peroksit ile oksidatif strese uğratılmış insan bronşiyal epitel hücre hattında (BEAS-2B) antioksidan etkilerinin olup olmadığı ve apoptotik yolaklar üzerindeki etkileri araştırılmıştır. Materyal ve Metod: BEAS-2B hücrelerinde H2O2 ile M. communis L. esansiyel yağının uygun dozlarının belirlenmesinde MTT yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Oksidatif stres oluşumu MDA düzeyi ölçülerek belirlenmiştir. Hücreler; oksidatif strese maruz bırakılan grup (H2O2), tedavili grup (H2O2+M. communis L) ve kontrol grubu olmak üzere üç gruba ayrılmıştır. Her üç grupta MDA düzeyleri ölçülmüş ve apoptotik etkilerin saptanması amacıyla Kaspaz 3, Kaspaz 8, Kaspaz 9 ile p21 genlerinin ekspresyon düzeyleri RT-PCR yöntemi ile saptanmıştır. Bulgular: MTT testi ile uygun dozlar H2O2 için 40 μM, M. communis L. yağı için 15.625 μg/ml olarak saptanmıştır. Sağlıklı hücre grubuyla karşılaştırıldığında, 40 μM H2O2 maruziyeti uygulanan grupta MDA düzeyinde anlamlı artış gözlenirken (p=0,0005), M. communis L. esansiyel yağı ile tedavi edilen gruptaki MDA düzeyi kontrol grubu ile benzer düzeyde (p>0.05) bulunmuştur. 40 μM H2O2 uygulanan hücrelerde Kaspaz 3, Kaspaz 8 ve p21 genlerinin ekspresyon seviyelerinin sağlıklı hücre grubuna göre anlamlı bir şekilde arttığı (sırasıyla p=0.001, p=0.017 ve p=0,0003), Kaspaz 9 gen ekspresyon seviyesinin değişmediği (p=0.8) saptanmıştır. M. communis L. yağı ile tedavi edilen hücrelerde, oksidatif stres modelinin oluşturulduğu gruba göre Kaspaz 3 gen ekspresyon seviyesinin anlamlı şekilde azaldığı saptanmıştır (p=0.00007). Sonuç: Çalışmamızda, M. communis L. esansiyel yağının MDA seviyesini güçlü şekilde azaltıcı etkisi olduğu, ayrıca apopitozu durdurucu bir etki göstererek, teröpatik ajan olarak potansiyeli olduğu gösterildi. Bu bağlamda M. communis L. yağının güçlü bir antioksidan etkiye sahip olduğu, oksidatif stresten kaynaklanan apoptozisin durdurulmasında etkili olduğu düşünülmektedir.
