Sirt1 siRNA reverses the effects of dioscin on Dox-induced cell damage. (A) Effects of dioscin on Sirt1 expression, ROS level, and cell apoptosis with or without transfection of Sirt1 siRNA in vitro. (B) Effects of dioscin on the expression levels of Sirt1, FOXO1, Keap1, Nrf2, HO-1, NF-κB, BAX, and BCL-2 after transfection with Sirt1 in AML-12 cells. Data are presented as the mean ± SD (n = 5 for in vitro test and n = 8 for in vivo test). # p < 0.05 and ## p < 0.01 versus the Dox group; *p < 0.05 and **p < 0.01 versus the Dox group transfected with Sirt1 siRNA. AML-12, alpha mouse liver 12; BAX, BCL-2-associated X; Dox, doxorubicin; FOXO1, forkhead box protein O1; HO-1, heme oxygenase-1; Keap1, kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1; NF-κB, nuclear factor κB; Nrf2, NF-E2-related factor 2; ROS, reactive oxygen species; Sirt1, silent information regulator 1.
