2-BFI enhances the proliferation of SH-SY5Y cells with fluorosis by stabilizing endoplasmic reticulum–mitochondria contact sites and inhibiting activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes
Abstract:2-(2-benzofu-ranyl)-2-imidazoline (2-BFI) is a drug that has attracted much attention in recent years. It has a therapeutic effect on brain diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and cerebral infarction. However, whether 2-BFI affects the proliferation of cells exposed to fluoride is not known. We investigated the proliferation and apoptosis of SH-SY5Y cells exposed to fluoride, and 2-BFI was used to protect SH-SY5Y cells against the effects of fluoride. We found that 2-BFI could enhance the proliferation of SH-… Show more
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.
