Myricetin reduces cytotoxicity by suppressing hepcidin expression in MES23.5 cells.

ABSTRACT: Multiple studies implicate iron accumulation in the substantia nigra in the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in Parkinson's disease. Indeed, slowing of iron accumulation in cells has been identified as the key point for delaying and treating Parkinson's disease. Myricetin reportedly plays an important role in anti-oxidation, anti-apoptosis, anti-inflammation, and iron chelation. However, the mechanism underlying its neuroprotection remains unclear. In the present study, MES23.5 cells were treated with 1 × 10^-6 M myricetin for 1 hour, followed by co-treatment with 400 nM rotenone for 24 hours to establish an in vitro cell model of Parkinson's disease. Our results revealed that myricetin alleviated rotenone-induced decreases in cell viability, suppressed the production of intr
