Abstract

Aβ-Cu complex generates different reactive oxygen species (ROS) which are responsible for oxidative stress in neuronal cells. We studied the effect of Mn(III)-salen on Aβ-Cu catalyzed ROS generation using different assays. Mn(III)-salen reacts with O2 •− generated by Aβ-Cu and delay H2O2 production. Mn(III)-salen significantly inhibits the formation of HO generated by Aβ-Cu which is further confirmed using mass spectrometry analysis. Our results indicate that H2O2 generated by Aβ-Cu activates Mn(III)-salen to oxomanganese which in turn detoxify Aβ-Cu-induced NO production in microglial cells. Overall, Mn(III)-salen complex can efficiently inhibits different ROS generated by Aβ-Cu due to its redox flexibility.
