Abstract: Objective To evaluate the effects of preconditioning with hydrogen peroxide(H₂O₂) on oxidative tolerance(OT) of rat neural stem cells(NSC) in proliferation(PNSC) and differentiation(DNSC) respectively.Methods PNSC and DNSC were cultured in vitro.H₂O₂ was used in following concentrations: 0.05,0.10,0.25,0.50 and 1.0 mmol/L,for 2 h,4 h,8 h,12 h and 24 h respectively to assess the cell injury.Oxidative preconditioning was undertaken with final concentration of 0.50 mmol/L H₂O₂ for 10 min.After 6 h or 12 h preconditioning,0.50 mmol/L H₂O₂ were added to cause insult.Hsp27,Hsp70,catalase(CAT),superoxide dismutase(SOD) assessed by immunohistochemistry(IHC),viability of CAT and SOD were assessed before and 12 h after preconditioning.TEM was used to study the ultrastructure.Results When H₂O₂ reaches 0.25 mmol/L,both PNSC and DNSC develop injury.Twelve hours after 0.50 mmol/L H₂O₂ preconditioning for 10 min in DNSC,the cell injury decrease significantly than the non-preconditioning group.The preconditioning OT can last at lest for 12 h.However,PNSC do not develop OT.DNSC presented significant more cells with positive staining of Hsp27 and Hsp70;however both the staining and viability of CAT and SOD keep no significant difference before and after preconditioning(P<0.05).The TEM demonstrated after preconditioning,more cells keep alive during H₂O₂ insult,and all surviving present characteristics of immature cells.Conclusion Although DNSC develops OT after 0.50 mmol/L H₂O₂ preconditioning for 10 min with 12 h interval,and the OT last for 12 h,the PNSC can't develop.The mechanism may involve the protection of Hsp27,Hsp70,but not CAT nor SOD.In addition,immature NSC get higher OT than differentiated NSC.
