Natural Products as Modulators of Nrf2 Signaling Pathway in Neuroprotection

Ignacio Moratilla-Rivera et al.

Summary: Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) are common diseases affecting the West due to increased life expectancy. Cells accumulate oxidative damage, triggering neurodegeneration. The transcription factor Nrf2 regulates endogenous antioxidant systems and induces the transcription of genes containing ARE in response to prooxidant conditions. Natural products such as quercetin, curcumin, and terpenoids can positively modulate Nrf2, reducing oxidative damage to the nervous system. This review aims to update knowledge on the potential treatments for NDs by activating the Nrf2 pathway with secondary metabolites of health interest.

Quercetin alleviates styrene oxide-induced cytotoxicity in cortical neurons in vitro via modulation of oxidative stress and apoptosis

Sabrine Moujahed et al.

Summary: This study investigates the mechanisms of cytotoxicity of Styrene 7,8-oxide (SO) in cortical neurons and the neuroprotective potential of quercetin (QUER). The results suggest that SO decreases cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner, while QUER increases cell viability by reducing intracellular ROS, decreasing calcium overload, and restoring mitochondrial membrane depolarization. Furthermore, SO-induced cell death involves apoptotic, necrotic, and necroptotic pathways, and QUER exerts its neuroprotective effects mainly through its anti-apoptotic activity.
