摘要:
Aim: Oxidative stress and the inflammatory response contribute to the progression of cardiovascular disease. The present study aimed to investigate whether the mitochondrial-derived peptide MOTS-c could alleviate H2O2-induced oxidative stress and inflammatory status in H9c2 cells through activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related Factor 2 (Nrf2)/antioxidative response element (ARE) and inhibition of the NF-κB pathway. Methods: Rat H9c2 cardiomyocytes were obtained, and 10, 20 or 50 μM MOTS-c was pretreated for 24 h before treatment with...
