In Vitro Studies on the Antioxidant and Protective Effect of 2-Substituted -8-Hydroxyquinoline Derivatives Against H2O2-Induced Oxidative Stress in BMSCs

Novel 2-vinyl-8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives as potential antioxidants and regulators of H2O2-induced oxidative stress in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are first reported. The antiradical properties and the reducing power of these compounds were assessed using 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and auto-oxidation of pyrogallol method, respectively. The activity against lipid peroxidation was determined using ammonium thiocyanate method. The results revealed that introduction of electron-donating groups at 2nd position decreased the antioxidant activities of 8-hydroxyquinoline derivatives. In addition, compound 4, the structure of which is similar to melatonin, exhibited superior antioxidant activities in scavenging DPPH free radical, ˙O2 free radical, and anti-LPO…
