Abstract
Diabetic cataract is one of the most important causes of blindness worldwide. Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) is found to exert beneficial effects on many diabetic complications. However, its effect on diabetic cataract is not well known. Herein, we investigated the effect of C3G on high glucose-induced lens epithelial cell (SRA01/04) apoptosis and cataract formation as well as the involved mechanisms. We found C3G (20 μM) could preserve cell viability in SRA01/04 cells exposed to high glucose (100 μM). Meanwhile, C3G inhibited SRA01/04 cell apoptosis and regulated the Bcl-2/Bax ratio. Additionally, C3G suppressed NF-κB activation and subsequent cyclooxygenases-2 (Cox-2) expression, which are associated with the protection against apoptosis. Moreover, C3G attenuated lens opacity and protein aggregation in lens culture exposed to high glucose. In conclusion, C3G protected against high glucose-induced SRA01/04 cell apoptosis and cataract formation, which indicated the potential protection of anthocyanins on diabetic cataract.
