PG - 659-71 AB - Beta-secretase (BACE1) controls an essential step for the generation of amyloid- peptide (Abeta). As Abeta forms the principle pathologies in Alzheimer's disease, lowering A production by inhibiting BACE1 is a plausible therapeutic approach. In the present study, we identified a natural polyphenol, luteolin, as a potent inhibitor of BACE1 transcription inhuman embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) and human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cell lines. Luteolin is capable of suppressing the activation of BACE1 promoter by NF-kappaB signaling. We further characterized that luteolin interferes with NF-kappaB signaling by with both directly and indirectly disrupting p65 complex formation. In addition, we discovered that estrogen receptor mediates luteolin's effect in inhibiting NF-kappaB signaling inhibiting and BACE1 transcription. Interestingly, the beneficial effects of luteolin may be attributed to selective activation profiles of luteolin to different estrogen receptor subtypes. Our study reports luteolin as a potent BACE1-inhibiting compound, providing useful information in understanding estrogen receptor- and NF-kappaB-mediated signaling and in regulating BACE1 expression.
