The invention relates to application of
autophagy in preparation of drugs or
health food for improving
fluorine-induced
neurotoxicity from
grape seed procyanidine. Rat and SH-SY5Y
cell experiments are carried out, and the rat experiments prove that after intervention of different doses of GSPE, the SOD activity and the GSH content are improved, the MDA level is reduced, the
antioxidant capacity of rats is recovered,
autophagy is promoted, the filial generation learning and
memory retention capacity is remarkably recovered, the autonomous activity capacity is recovered,
anxiety behaviors are reduced, the occurrence and development processes of dental fluorosis are slowed down, and the occurrence and development of dental fluorosis are promoted. The change trends of different doses of GSPE present
dose dependence, and the protection effect of a high-
dose combined intervention group is most significant; in an SH-SY5Y
cell experiment, the activity of the cells is improved through GSPE pretreatment, the expression quantity of cleave-
caspase3 and cleaved-PARP is remarkably reduced, the
autophagy process of the SH-SY5Y cells is promoted, and then the
neurotoxicity caused by NaF is relieved. NaF is used as a representative, the prevention and treatment effects of GSPE on the
fluorine-induced
neurotoxicity are researched, and it is proved that GSPE can inhibit the NaF-induced neurotoxicity, so that the application of autophagy in preparation of drugs or
health food for improving the
fluorine-induced neurotoxicity from
grape seed procyanidine is provided.
