INM-1 protects hepatic tissues against gamma-radiation induced toxicity. PG - 1471-8 LID - 10.1002/tox.21877 [doi] AB - Present study was focused on evaluation of a semiquinone glucoside derivative (SQGD) isolated from radioresistant bacterium Bacillus sp. INM-1 for its ability against gamma radiation induced oxidative stress in irradiated mice. Animals were divided into four group, i.e., (i) untreated control mice; (ii) SQGD treated (50 mg/kg b. wt. i.p.) mice; (iii) irradiated (10 Gy) mice; and (iv) irradiated mice which were pre-treated (-2 h) with SQGD (50 mg/kg b. wt. i.p.). Following treatment, liver homogenates of the treated mice were subjected to endogenous antioxidant enzymes estimation. Result indicated that SQGD pre-treatment, significantly (P < 0.05) induced superoxide dismutase (SOD) (19.84 +/- 2.18% at 72 h), catalase (CAT) (26.47 +/- 3.11% at 12 h), glutathione (33.81 +/- 1.99% at 24 h), and glutathione-S-transferase (24.40 +/- 2.65% at 6 h) activities in the liver of mice as compared with untreated control. Significant (P < 0.05) induction in SOD (50.04 +/- 5.59% at 12 h), CAT (62.22 +/- 7.50 at 72 h), glutathione (42.92 +/- 2.28% at 24 h), and glutathione-S-transferase (46.65 +/- 3.25 at 12 h) was observed in irradiated mice which were pre-treated with SQGD compared with only irradiated mice. Further, significant induction in ABTS(+) radicals (directly proportional to decrease mM Trolox equivalent) was observed in liver homogenate of H2 O2 treated mice which were found to be significantly inhibited in H2 O2 treated mice pre-treated with SQGD. Thus, it can be concluded that SQGD treatment neutralizes oxidative stress caused by irradiation not only by enhancing endogenous antioxidant enzymes but also by improving total antioxidant status of cellular system and thus cumulative effect of the phenomenon may contributes to radioprotection.
