Abstract
Oxidative stress-induced neuronal damage is a main cause of ischemia/reperfusion injury. Curcumin (Cur), the principal constituent extracted from dried rhizomes of Curcuma longa L. (turmeric), exhibits excellent antioxidant effects. Previous studies have indicated that miR-1287-5p was downregulated in patients with ischemic stroke. Additionally, we predicted that Lon Peptidase 2, Peroxisomal (LONP2), which is involved in oxidative stress regulation, is targeted by miR-1287-5p. The aim of the current study is to investigate the effect of Cur on ischemia/reperfusion damage and its underlying mechanism. To mimic ischemia/reperfusion damage environment, SH-SY5Y cells were subjected to oxygen-glucose-deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R). OGD/R treatment downregulated miR-1287-5p and upregulated LONP2 in SH-SY5Y cells, but Cur alleviated OGD/R-induced oxidative damage and reversed the effect of OGD/R on the expression of miR-1287-5p and LONP2. Furthermore, we confirmed the interactive relationship between miR-1287-5p and LONP2 (negative regulation). We revealed that miR-1287-5p overexpression alleviated OGD/R-induced oxidative damage alleviation, similar to the effect of Cur. MiR-1287-5p inhibition accentuated OGD/R-induced oxidative damage in SH-SY5Y cells, which was reversed by Cur. The expression of LONP2 in OGD/R-treated SH-SY5Y cells was decreased by miR-1287-5p overexpression and increased by miR-1287-5p inhibition, and Cur counteracted the increase in LONP2 expression induced by miR-1287-5p inhibition. In conclusion, we suggest that Cur alleviates OGD/R-induced oxidative damage in SH-SY5Y cells by regulating the miR-1287-5p/LONP2 axis. The findings provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application of curcumin.
