摘要
Objective:To investigate the role of water-soluble extract of Salvia fruticosa(Creek sage)(S.fruticosa) leaves in reducing both intrinsic cellular and H_2O_2-induced DNA oxidation in cultured human embryonic kidney 293 cells.S.fruiicosa.native to the Eastern-Mediterranean basin,is widely used as a medicinal herb for treatment of various diseases.Methods:Dried leaves of 5.fruticosa were extracted in phosphate buffer saline and purified using both vacuum and high pressure filtrations.Each mL of the preparation contained(7.1±1.0)mg of extract.HEK-293 cells were incubated in one set with S.fruticosa extract in the presence of 0.1 mmol/L H_2O_2,and in the other set with the addition of the extract alone.The DNA oxidation was measured using fluorescence upon fluorescein isothiocyanate derivarization of 8-oxoguanine moieties.The fluorescence was measured using flow cytometry technique.Results:Cells incubated 3 h with 150μL extract and exposed to 0.1 mmol/L H_2O_2 showed lower intensity of fluorescence,and thus lower DNA oxidation.Moreover,cells incubated 3 h with 100μl.of the extract showed lower intensity of fluorescence,and thus lower intrinsic cellular DNA oxidation compared to control(without S.fruticosa).Conchisions:The results from this study suggest that the water-soluble extract of S.fruticosa leaves protects against both H_2O_2-induced and intrinsic cellular DNA oxidation in human embryonic kidney 293 cells.
