Insulin Blocks Glutamate-Induced Neurotoxicity in Differentiated SH-SY5Y Neuronal Cells

Abstract: Insulin is a cytokine which promotes cell growth. Recently, a few published reports on insulin in different cell lines support the antiapoptotic effect of insulin. But the reports fail to explain the role of insulin in modulating glutamate-mediated neuronal cell death through excitotoxicity. Thus, we examined the neuroprotective effect of insulin on glutamate-induced toxicity on differentiated SH-SY5Y neuronal cells. Changes in cell viability were measured by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazoli… Show more

“…Decreased cell viability was associated with increased intracellular calcium concentration and enhanced A B apoptosis, as well as necrosis. Consistent with the findings of the present study, a recent study demonstrated that treatment with 20 mM glutamate induced apoptosis and elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation in SH-SY5Y cells (13). RIP kinase 1 and RIP kinase 3 are key signaling molecules in programmed necrosis (9,10).…”

“…Insulin therapies are being tested as a potential treatment in several neurodegenerative disorders based on the following observations: (1) insulin dysfunction in several CNS diseases (Table 1); (2) the observed potential of insulin to alleviate cytotoxic insult to neuronal cells in culture [40] ; (3) its ability to enhance learning and memory in rodents [41,42] . For example, the administration of intranasal insulin has already shown promising effects in humans by halting further memory loss in mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease [43,44] .…”
