Abstract

 Background: Neuroinflammation, as a major outcome of MICROGLIA activation, is an important factor for progression of neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. MICROGLIAl cells, as the first-line defense in the central nervous system, act as a source of neurotoxic factors such as nitric oxide (NO), a free radical which is involved in neuronal cell death. The aim of this study was to inhibit production of NO in activated MICROGLIAl cells in order to decrease neurological damages that threat the central nervous system.Methods: An in vitro model of a newborn rat brain cell culture was used to examine the effect of BETAINE on the release of NO induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Briefly, primary MICROGLIAl cells were stimulated by LPS and after 2 minutes, they were treated by different concentrations of BETAINE. The production of NO was assessed by the Griess assay while cell viability was determined by the MTT assay.Results: Our investigations indicated that LPSinduced NO release was attenuated by BETAINE, suggesting that this compound might inhibit NO release. The effects of BETAINE on NO production in activated MICROGLIAl cells after 24 h were "dose-dependent". It means that MICROGLIAl cells which were treated with higher concentrations of BETAINE, released lower amounts of NO. Also our observations showed that BETAINE compound has no toxic effect on MICROGLIAl cells.Conclusion: BETAINE has an inhibitory effect on NO release in activated MICROGLIAl cells and may be an effective therapeutic component to control neurological disorders.
