Purpose: The beneficial, neuroprotective effects of curcumin against ischemia-reperfusion injury have been demonstrated. In the present study, whether curcumin exerts neuroprotective effects associated with the inhibition of autophagy and hypoxia inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1 alpha) was investigated.Materials and methods: PC12 cellular model of oxygen glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R) has been developed to mimic cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. Cell viability was evaluated using the CellTiter 96 (R) AQ(ueous). One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay. Apoptosis was assessed using flow cytometry. The expression levels of HIF- la and autophagy-associated proteins, LC3 and P62, were examined using Western blot. The autophagy flux was quantitatively estimated based on the number of autophagic compartments using fluorescence microscopy. In addition, 3-methyladenine (3-MA) was administered to PC12 cells to investigate how autophagy affects HIF-1 alpha. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of HIF-1 alpha on autophagy activation level were examined.Results: In this study, curcumin decreased the death and apoptosis of cells, and inhibited autophagy and HIF-1 alpha under OGD/R conditions, consistent with 3-MA treatment or HIF-1 alpha downregulation. Moreover, inhibition of autophagy caused a decrease in HIF-1 alpha, and the attenuation of HIF-1 alpha induced autophagy suppression under OGD/R conditions.Conclusion: The results of this study showed that curcumin exerts neuroprotective effects against ischemia-reperfusion, which is associated with the regulation of the reciprocal function between autophagy and HIF-1 alpha.
