Abstract
Isoacteoside was isolated from Clerdendron trichotomum Thunb that belongs to Verbenaceae family. We found that isoacteoside the heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression in a time dependent manner, Furthermore, isoacteoside increased the expression of NF-E2 regulated factor 2 (Nrf2), which is a transcription factor of HO-1, in a time dependent manner. Moreover, isoacteoside increased the phospho Erk expression. Our data suggested that isoacteoside showed antioxideant effects via Erk activation, induction of Nrf2, and HO-1, in Chinese hamster lung fibroblast cells.
Key Words: Isoacteoside, NF-E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2), Antioxidant effect
