摘要: Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a neuropeptide with potent neurotrophic and neuroprotective effects. We have previously shown that PACAP protects against several types of retinal injuries in vivo, including ischemia, glutamate-induced excitotoxicity, UV A-induced lesion, diabetic retinopathy. also activates antiapoptotic pathways inhibits proapoptotic signaling lesions vivo. receptors been identified on the pigment epithelial cells has to inhibit interleukin secretion from cells. It not known, however, whether protective these Human (ARPE-19 cell line) were exposed vitro oxidative stress by hydrogen peroxide. Cell survival was decreased stress, which could be significantly dose-dependently attenuated 10 pM–1 μM treatment, as MTT viability test. The effect blocked receptor antagonist PACAP6-38. In addition, flow cytometry JC-1 assay revealed stress-induced apoptosis treatment. summary, results show, for first time,
