Neuroprotective Effect of the Marine-Derived Compound 11-Dehydrosinulariolide through DJ-1-Related Pathway in In Vitro and In Vivo Models of Parkinson's Disease.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, and gait impairment. In a previous study, we found that the marine-derived compound 11-dehydrosinulariolide (11-de) upregulates the Akt/PI3K pathway to protect cells against 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-mediated damage. In the present study, SH-SY5Y, zebrafish and rats were used to examine the therapeutic effect of 11-de. The results revealed the mechanism by which 11-de exerts its therapeutic effect: the compound increases cytosolic or mitochondrial DJ-1 expression, and then activates the downstream Akt/PI3K, p-CREB, and Nrf2/HO-1 pathways. Additionally, we found that 11-de could reverse the 6-OHDA-induced downregulation of total swimming distance in a zebrafish model of PD. Using a rat model of PD, we showed that a 6-OHDA-induced increase in the number of turns, and increased time spent by rats on the beam, could be reversed by 11-de treatment. Lastly, we showed that 6-OHDA-induced attenuation in tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), a dopaminergic neuronal marker, in zebrafish and rat models of PD could also be reversed by treatment with 11-de. Moreover, the patterns of DJ-1 expression observed in this study in the zebrafish and rat models of PD corroborated the trend noted in previous in vitro studies.

Neuroprotection by marine-derived compound, 11-dehydrosinulariolide, in an in vitro Parkinson's model: a promising candidate for the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, and gait impairment. So far, very few pharmacological agents have been isolated or developed that effectively inhibit the progression of PD. However, several studies have demonstrated that inflammatory processes play critical roles in PD. Therefore, anti-inflammatory agents may suppress disease progression in PD. 11-Dehydrosinulariolide was isolated from cultured soft corals. The anti-inflammatory effect of this molecule has been observed through suppression of the expression of two main pro-inflammatory proteins: inducible nitric oxide synthase and cyclooxygenase-2, in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated macrophage cells. We also found that 11-dehydrosinulariolide significantly reduced 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis in a human neuroblastoma cell line (SH-SY5Y). The pharmacological activity of this compound has been studied, and it is associated with the inhibition of 6-OHDA-induced activation of caspase-3 and translocation of nuclear factor kappa B. 11-Dehydrosinulariolide increased the activation of survival-signaling phospho-Akt but not phospho-ERK. The neuroprotective effect of 11-dehydrosinulariolide was assessed here using 6-OHDA-treated SH-SY5Y cells, wherein neuroprotection is mediated through regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). Furthermore, 11-dehydrosinulariolide caused a significant decrease in caspase-3/7 activity in comparison to the 6-OHDA-treated group, indicating that 11-dehydrosinulariolide has neuroprotective properties. We conclude that 11-dehydrosinulariolide is a promising candidate for the treatment of Parkinson's disease through its anti-apoptotic and anti-inflammatory action via PI3K signaling.
