The changes in marker indicators of apoptotic cell death were studied: the level of functional activity of initiating caspases-8, -9, -12, membrane death receptors Fas, intracellular reactive oxygen species, cytosolic calcium, mitochondrial potential of peripheral blood lymphocytes of donors induced by exposure to hydrogen peroxide at final concentrations of 10-6 and 10-5 mol/l. Activation of initiating caspase-8 associated with membrane death receptors Fas was detected after exposure to hydrogen peroxide lymphocytes at a concentration of 10-6 mol/l. There was a significant increase in the functional activity of initiating caspase-9, the level of Fas receptors and intracellular reactive oxygen species, as well as a decrease in the concentration of cytosolic calcium and the value of the mitochondrial membrane potential 1 and 2 hours after modification of cells with hydrogen peroxide at a concentration of 10-5 mol/l compared with those for intact immunocytes. It was found that apoptosis of lymphocytes under the influence of exogenous hydrogen peroxide is realized with the participation of receptor-mediated caspase, mitochondrial (with activation of caspase-9) and p53-dependent mechanisms. The protective effect of resveratrol (10-6 mol/l) on lymphocytes after exposure to hydrogen peroxide (10-5 mol / l), which is due to its ability to reduce the level of reactive oxygen species in intact and modified hydrogen peroxide immunocytes, as well as deactivate hydrogen peroxide.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
