description | The present study investigated the effect of Stevia residue extract (SRE) against oxidative stress in d-galactose (d-gal) induced aging mice. LC-MS/MS analysis revealed that SRE is a good source of chlorogenic acids. Biochemical results showed that SRE significantly increased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), and decreased acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) level in serum, liver or brain of d-gal induced aging mice. At 200 mg/kg, SRE up-regulated the mRNA expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its downstream target genes including GPx1, CAT, SOD1, quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in d-gal treated mice liver. SRE also up-regulated the protein expression of Nrf2, HO-1 and the ratio of phosphorylated Akt to Akt (pAkt/Akt) in d-gal treated mice liver. These findings suggest that SRE is able to protect against oxidative stress in d-gal induced aging model via activation of Akt/Nrf2/HO-1 pathway. In conclusion, SRE may provide a promising dietary approach for the prevention or alleviation of oxidative stress and age-related conditions. |
