Resveratrol upregulates the protein expression levels of Nrf-2 in the nuclei, and NQO-1 and HO-1 in the cytoplasm of neural stem cells following oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation injury in vitro. (A) Protein expression of Nrf2 in nuclei and NQO-1 and HO-1 in cytoplasm. Quantification of data for (B) Nrf2, (C) NQO-1 and (D) HO-1. Western blot analysis revealed that the protein expression levels of Nrf2 in the nuclei, and NQO-1 and HO-1 in the cytoplasm were significantly upregulated in the Mod and Res groups, compared with those in the Nor group. The levels were highest in the 5 μmol/l resveratrol (Res5) group suggesting resveratrol increased expression of Nrf2 in the nuclei and NQO-1 and HO-1 in the cytoplasm. P<0.05, vs. Nor group; ΔP<0.05, vs. Mod group. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviation and were compared using one-way analysis of variance (n=3 for each group). Nor, normal; Mod, model; Res, resveratrol; Nfr-2, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2; NQO-1 NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1; HO-1, heme oxygenase 1.
